#### 3d Printer (of course)
If you can afford a little more in cost, I suggest the [Prusa i3 MK2](http://shop.prusa3d.com/en/3d-printers/59-original-prusa-i3-mk2-kit.html) at $699.99. It gets great reviews, isn't super expensive, and makes really top quality prints.
If you want something cheaper, a lot of people seem to be really happy with the [Monoprice Maker Select](https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=13860) at $299.99.
If you want something cheaper, GearBest reached out to me to have me print with their [Tronxy X5s](https://www.gearbest.com/3d-printers-3d-printer-kits/pp_701645.html?lkid=11524128), and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised, it's a really solid printer. You can pick it up for $285.99. Also, a lot of people seem to be really happy with the [Monoprice Maker Select](https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=13860) at $299.99.
#### Hobby knife
You'll want an xacto knife. I prefer one with [rubber sides](https://www.amazon.com/ELMERS-X3000-Rubber-Barrel-Blades-X3732Q/dp/B00BMQGJE2/ref=sr_1_8?s=arts-crafts&ie=UTF8&qid=1505843735&sr=1-8&keywords=xacto). You'll also want a [self healing mat](https://www.amazon.com/Alvin-Professional-Cutting-Green-Black/dp/B00251I5P4/ref=pd_sim_201_3?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=SV3YYQPM91B869B14T75&dpID=51nFzgaVOnL&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=detail) and [plenty of blades](https://www.amazon.com/X-ACTO-X-Life-Classic-Blades-X611/dp/B00006ICJV/ref=sr_1_6?s=arts-crafts&ie=UTF8&qid=1505843735&sr=1-6&keywords=xacto) (a sharp knife is counterintuitively safer then a dull one). Don't be stupid with these, cut away from yourself. I know, I've had 3 bad cuts in the past few years, one of which that did permanent nerve damage to my left pointer finger. Be careful!
