Hello. I am looking to start a small business building 3D printed car parts for race cars. I have no experience with 3D printing or CAD, but I have over 40 years of intensive software engineering experience and have worked on several race cars over the years. I have started your 3D printing course and plan to take additional beginner courses in CAD and 3D scanning to develop my skills. My question is: what is the best 3D printer under $5,000 that is easy to use but highly capable of printing automotive parts that need to withstand high stress and heat? I am aiming for a machine suitable for low-volume production with very high quality. I’ve noticed a few Bamboo printers that seem promising, but I’d appreciate recommendations from someone who actually manufactures 3D car parts. What about the following Bamboo models?

* H2D

* H2D Pro

* H2C

* X1C

* X1E

Or is there another manufacturer and models you would recommend?
