One of the Ultimaker videos shows a Oscar statuette they have
printed. The finish is good, but it took them 20 hours to print. Not
a problem for a one off master, but not desirable if somebody wants
to buy several of them.



More printers.

They cost £2k each. I would need to go into business doing 3D printing
to justify buying more than one and I am looking to cut down on my work,
not increase it.



You can have 10 for £2k and have a lot of change.
The £2k ones don't actually print better, but they may be easier to use.

You could get a prusa multi-material machine for about £1k
