I have a couple of 3d printers, including a Prusa i3v, and it doesn't hold very good tolerances out of the box. My Replicator 2x, however, makes beautiful parts.

Printing is awesome -- I use it to make car parts all the time, including sunroof sliders that I made for a member on here to try out. Apparently they worked pretty well for a first iteration part!
