I would like to talk about a piece of technology that I find difficult to use, which is a 3D printer. I first used a 3D printer about a year ago during a robotics workshop. At first, I thought it would be easy because I had already worked with computers and Arduino boards. However, I quickly realized that using a 3D printer is much more complicated than I expected. The main reason I find it difficult is that there are many settings that need to be adjusted, such as printing temperature, printing speed, and layer height. If one setting is wrong, the printed object may fail or come out with defects. In addition, preparing a CAD model for printing requires special software, which can be confusing for beginners. When I use the 3D printer, I often feel nervous because I worry that I might make a mistake and waste time or materials. At the same time, I feel excited because it's amazing to see a digital design turn into a real object. Although I still find this challenging, I think it's a useful technology, and I hope to become more confident in using it in the future.

If one setting is wrong, the printer object may fail or come out with defect. In addition, preparing a CD model for printing requires special softwares, which can be confusing for beginners.
