        <title>DIY Selective Laser Sintering FAQ</title>
        <description> Guys,

Some time ago I started research on feasibility of building a DIY Selective Laser Sintering rapid prototyping machine to work with thermoplastics. It quickly turned out that a there are quite a few enthusiasts who are already doing something in this area, as well as wealth of helpful information. However, what I found, it is very time consuming to gather enough background information to actually be able to design and build an SLS machine.

So, I&#039;ve started a DIY Selective Laser Sintering FAQ page on the RepRap wiki with the aim to build easily accessible all-in-one collection of common answers to common questions so that other enthusiasts like me could save time looking for the same information. Hopefully this becomes a living document as knowledge of the community grows.

It&#039;s in early days, and I&#039;m still adding material to it, but I&#039;m eager to share as it already has some answer, and, who knows, even might prompt someone to contribute :)</description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Any type of powder (ABS, PLA, etc) in small quanities<br />
is impossible to purchase.<br />
<br />
Anybody got a source that I don't have to order a metric ton<br />
and ship by container ship??<br />
<br />
