Very impressive and useful piece of hand-held equipment. Lots of fun!
I'm impressed with this pen! As I don't have any other experience in 3D modelling, this is a great place to start. It is definitely not a toy, at least in todays mind. I grew up in the 1960's when all toys were dangerous! The nozzle end and heated plastic do get hot enough to burn. The plastic cools right away, but setting the nozzle down touching clothing might burn a hole.
Working with it takes practice. Straight lines and consistent size are tricky! Everything I do with it is fun, no matter what it looks like. My use for it is in Model Railroading and creating tiny parts, accessories, plants, etc. and the pen is perfect for that. The plastic can be easily painted with acrylic paints but there is a rainbow of colors available.
Once I get to handling it better, it will be very fun and useful to me! I would allow a 12 year old child to use it, but in a specific 'work shop' environment only like any electric tool.
