The SCRIB3D P1 is a 3D printing pen set for people who want to turn flat sketches into small models, lettering and simple 3D shapes at home or school. Instead of a full 3D printer, you get a handheld tool that lets you “draw” plastic lines in the air or over paper templates, using the included PLA starter filaments.
Who is this pen a good fit for?
-
Kids and teens who enjoy art, crafts or building things and want to try 3D without investing in a big machine.
-
Hobby makers and parents who like repairing small plastic bits, adding custom labels or decorating projects with raised designs.
-
Beginners who appreciate having a clear starter kit with filaments, power adapter and stencil book in one box.
The adjustable speed control helps you slow down for more detailed outlines and speed up when you’re filling in larger areas, so you can adapt the flow to your own pace instead of fighting the pen.
When it might not be the best choice
-
If you expect perfectly precise, technical parts like a full-size 3D printer would make, a pen will feel more like a drawing tool than a machine.
-
Very young children should still use it with an adult nearby, since it works with warmed plastic and requires some coordination.
Used as a creative tool rather than a high-precision printer, the SCRIB3D P1 can be a fun way to explore 3D thinking, personalise gifts or add depth to school and hobby projects.
