Etsy. When you reach $50k in sales selling say, Mandolorian helmets, Disney, Marvel, TAYLOR SWIFT stuff. You will get a cease and desist letter (look it up) or worse. You have now become Worth suing. You NOW make enough to come after. 4 years ago the cost per hour was $6 . This was printing a product for someone else. This also became a standard for reselling.
I'm fairly sure its a law - at least it is in my place - first few pieces are considered an "art" and can be sold legally, but after that you are moving into "mass production" and then you need a license for that or you are breaking the law.
Answered my questions, I was planning on selling some of my 3d printed helmets. Sucks that I can't sell them because i have people who want to buy them. 😡
I know in the uk, you can do it under commission they have the file. you're just printing it. You're not selling the item you're selling 3d printing service.
I wanted to make and sell super hero figures but didn't want to deal with copyright so I just said "screw it" and designed some super heroes of my own. Sure they wouldn't sell as well as known characters but at least I'm 100% sure I won't get sued. haha
What's the law over 'image rights' Batman has a logo. What if it's just say, Tom Cruise. I know in the past videogames could use car brands, if no badges.
There is a giant loophole at least with freely distributed models. You can charge for the *service* of printing, which is distinctly different from selling the part. If you plan on doing that though, you had better make sure your advertisements literally only say that.
You would think that's a "loophole" but it's not.

if you want to get a cheap(er) color printer the A1 is the better one to get, since it uses the same build plate as the P1 and X1. The limitation of the A1 printers is you are fixed to 4 colors only, no later expansion. Though the A1 does have ports for more AMS's so Bambu might release something later that adds more, but who knows when that will happen. Overall getting at least the P1S would be your best bet as you can add more AMS's later down the road and expand capabilities. The best one is to get the X1C for the easiest use overall but the price is the main sticking point.
Honestly I have the A1 mini and the A1 is back in stock so I ordered that too. Why not ! I love the A1 mini but it's build size being smaller does place some limits on stuff.

Fair use virtually never applies to commercial models. It's to prevent news broadcasters from being sued just because there happens to be a McDonald's in the background when recording on site, or if you want to make backups of your PC, or if a librarian wants to ensure an out of print book is still available for people to read - stuff like that. It generally doesn't cover selling items with IP protection. Parody is making a joke - it's not a blanket thing that covers all derivative works. Funko is not going off of parody - they're actually getting licenses. Just pulled up a box online, they are using the Nickelodeon trademark on the packaging one of their toys, that is almost certainly being used under license. . . . and licensing is actually a legit way to sell things. If you can get a license from the copyright or trademark holder that allows you to sell stuff with their IP, that's perfectly acceptable. Most people don't realize that's an option. I would ask if somebody does that, they make it clear it's a licensed work. "and frivolous frivolous lawsuit tactics against independent artists..." I'd agree a lawsuit would be frivolous if I were to make things for myself, or give things to friends and family. But once you start charging for things and putting them up for sale so the general public can buy them - that's not the same, and some businesses will draw the line and start litigating once they see that.
Hey! I wish this could be true, but Etsy and eBay and stuff has TONS of files for sale that are copyrighted and for some reason they don't get shut down. Making a Disney character from scratch and selling it is still infringement. Just be careful and safe. Thanks!
Selling 3d files of copyrighted stuff IS ILLEGAL itself. 3d files are product. Legally, selling 3d files is treated the same as selling pictures, t-shirts, figurines - you have to have a license.

Good tips dude. Me and my homie are tryna get something up n runnin.
Hi! How many printers do u have with your idea?
I charge 5$ per print hour plus filament and electricity fee. So 6.50 per hour each print.. I don’t charge for the files..

Do you have stories for them? Do you have a link to them, would love to see YOUR work.
Really helpful tips. Thanks!
And that is why I try to make my own items...& sometimes it works out.

What if I sell the printing service only (time, materials, expertise) and someone else gives me the file to print?
What if I'm just charging people to print with my printer?

People in my area in local markets give you a "gift" for donations and get away with it you all need to check flea markets
If I make my own model of a character from a game that is like a fan art model is that still considered copyright?
If its obvious that it is based on that game then yes, you are selling someone else property.
