Thingiverse Vs Printables

If i'm looking for something specific i will go to thangs and search as it's a meta search engine as well as being a host for models. Printables has a gamification angle for participating on the site, where points turn into filament tied into their eshop. Yeggi is rather new to me. Otherwise i usually start on printables, then thingiverse, then cults (which i don't like as much due to it being mainly paid models)

Printables is more usable in every aspect, thingiverse has more models. Sorta like searching for fidget spinner and sorting by popular (just an example, it is understandable why the results are what they are in that case). I love that they automated the thingiverse import! Thingiverse does allow for tipping through paypal, which is nice.

So Start On Printables If You Don.

Thingiverse was the old school answer which was fine, but it started to languish for a long time. Their paid model section is relatively new and fairly sparse still. Printables is now my absolute goto and i rarely need to go elsewhere. Railcore ii 300xl w/ duet 3 & rrf 3.5rc4, makerbot r2x w/ duet 2 wifi & rrf 3.4 undefined 1 reply last reply reply quote 0

I've Started Using Printables And Will Avoid Thingiverse Going Forward.

I signed up for printables and have high hopes for the site, i think there are many people eager to find a better alternative to thingiverse. A long came printables and it was a breath of fresh air in comparison to the very 90s thingiverse (in my book). From beginners to professionals, we come together to teach, learn, and share everything about screenwriting. I tried filtering out the results i was getting by using negative terms, which printables allows and most other search engines support, and it changed nothing.
