3D Printing - not everyone's cup of tea 

When you've designed something useful and people want to buy them. What's the chance that these, taking 1 day, 3 hours and 7 minutes to print will work successfully every time?

@neil I tend to find the length of the print doesn't significantly increase the failure rate. Especially with a filament run out sensors, were on big prints running out of filament can be the biggest issue.

Tend to find most failures on my 3D printer are caused by bed adhesion, which is usually best tuned with print orientation and if needed brims. Or by extrusion issues which tends to be related to different filament and tuning a little for it.

@intrbiz I expect it would be fine. The only concern I might have is bed uniformity overall. OTOH, my first layer is 0.25mm so that should cope with the variance I have (<0.15mm).
