Dear Erkut
I would like to agree with you. I have made several bottles prototypes during
the last two years. Our final FDM prototypes actually looked better than our
SLA ones. Bottle prototypes were split in sections during the RP stage,
joined, sanded, spray painted and finished. I preferred to work with ABS
material.
