Turd printer

The name given to a 3D printer that does a shit job replicating your 3D computer model ie. the surface finish is stringy, fails to print smaller details accurately, or fails the 3D print completely.

The definition also relates to the way a 3D printer prints 3D models. A 3D printer only has one nozzle that lays out plastic layer by layer to build up your 3D model this is similar to how turds can stack up on top of each other in the toilet bowl to create a 3D pyramid like shape.

Tom: Hey Sam, how did that 3D computer model turn out when you 3D printed it ?

Sam: My turd printer did a shit job. I need to get a better one.
