3D printer that even Nobuyuki Tsuchiya of Knights is into

Speaking of 3D printers, Nobuyuki Tsuchiya of the comic duo “Knights” bought a 3D printer 「Finder」 to make figures to be used in “eraser soccer” (by the World Eraser Soccer Association), and also made a figure of a horse because he loves horse racing. I’m a horse racing fan, so I’m making horse figures. I thought to myself, 「That’s how close to home I am now」.
