Project Update #5: New Hires, Stretch Goal Unlocked, and Sneak Peeks... Posted by 3Dagogo ♥ Like

https://ci4.googleusercontent.com/pr...JPG?1401552263 We have tons of announcements today! 1) We would like to welcome all our new hires, seen above. From left to right are Mo, Mo (above), Mo (below), Mo, and the other Mo! With our team expanded, production can move even faster on AstroPrint! 2) Stretch Goal 1 is unlocked!!! File sharing will be part of the original release of AstroPrint! We're moving quickly towards goal #2, which will unlock plugins for Blender and Sketchup! AroundMonday, we will announce the third stretch goal. We are still working out some details for it before we announce it! 3) Fun Fact for Techie Folks - We left the Moes in the office overnight and by the time we came in the next morning, they recoded the whole Gcode analyzer into C! Wow! Now our Gcode analyzer is literally 15x faster than the javascript Gcode analyzer (we timed it.) 4) We made a little video showing the live prototype of AstroPrint working, check it out: (Please note, this is obviously time lapsed, we're not trying to imply AstroPrint will make your nozzle heat up in 1 second!) https://ci4.googleusercontent.com/pr..._high.jpg?2014 ► Play video We'll put together a longer more comprehensive video next week. Thanks again to all the backers! Please remember to tell your friends how awesome AstroPrint is! Drew, Josh, and Daniel
