If you want to make stuff, there's no more enjoyable way than bringing it to life on a 3D printer. You get the satisfaction of bringing something new into existence without all the manual labor that comes with other creative hobbies.

For 3D printers, it feels like Black Friday is already here. Some of the best models are on sale with huge discounts. My favorite printer, the Bambu Lab A1 Combo, has seen a price drop to $379 from its $599 price.

For budget 3D printers, you certainly can't go wrong with the Centauri Carbon. Even at $413, it's a great value. When dropped to $279, it's an even better one. It prints quickly and with a high standard of quality. Sure, it only has one filament spool, but that's expected at this price point.

This is the 3D printer I'm currently testing, and I absolutely love it. Between the reasonable cost ($379 for a multi-color printer is really good) and the quality of prints it creates, I couldn't be happier with my decision to grab this printer. It's fast and easy enough to use that my eight-year-old stepson is picking it up quickly. If this is your first foray into 3D printing, don't hesitate to get this all-time low deal.

For my money, this is the perfect entry point into resin printing. If you want to make fine, detailed prints such as D&D figures and the like, this is the printer for you. It's priced well during these early Black Friday deals, so don't wait if you're interested in an enclosed model that comes with a good-sized print area.

This 3D printer is more than just a printer — it does 10W laser engraving and 200W CNC carving, opening up a whole new world of potential creations to you. For a printer that does all three functions (it prints with PLA, PETG, Wood PLA, TPU and ABS), you can't beat a price just under $1,100.

There are the 3D printers you have (in my case, the A1 Combo and Saturn 4 Ultra 16K) and the one you want. This is the one I want! You can connect multiple AMS 2 Pro spools to it, allowing you to print a wide range of colors and materials seamlessly. If you can afford it, consider investing in this 3D printer. Note: Use code "3DPX1C" to get the lowest price.
