Hi again DrLuigi,
It is great to hear that you are still wanting to purchase a Strooder before the Kickstarter comes to an end!
This week we employed two new engineers and an engineering intern...
Hello DrLuigi,
Currently the consistency is at most 0.06, but we are working to improve this so it is consistently below 0.05. The new nozzle designs have been completed and send away to be...
Strooder has hit over £50K now which means if you add £50 to your Strooder pledge, you will receive an automatic spooler.

Hello,
The retail price is definitely set at £249 (Approx. $415)
If you are buying pellets from ourselves it would take around 15KG-17KG to break even, given you use virgin pellets.
Once...
Hi,
Sorry to hear your confusion. As mentioned above, it is guaranteed that 5mm can be fed into the tube and be successfully extruded. We are continuing our testing of up to an inch and it is...
Our current tests were with the plastic size up to 5 mm grain size which has performed successfully. We have had positive results of extrusion up to about an inch but we are still finalising the...
Hey Astro,
1) We have been experimenting with different motors to achieve the best results possible however the aim is to have about 10 RMP (currently 8 RPM) top speed on the auger bit. The 35 RPM...
That is absolutely possible. As long as the plastic is cut down to the feed tube size (less than .5mm) and any contaminants are removed then you can recycle it.

Hi JRDM,
All of our business costs have been factored in when we priced Strooder. We fully appreciate what it takes to stay a float as a business and providing the Kickstarter goal is met we...
Hi,
For international orders, the charges will be offset by the UK charges, so you will only pay the remainder. We are putting estimates on the Kickstarter page but the estimated price for...
Update #9:
We have been approved by Kickstarter. Everything is in place and we are launching today (May 27th) at 18:00 GMT+1!
We want to say a massive thank you to all of you who have...
We too are hoping too supply to schools and labs and for this reason have focused on user friendliness and safety for the product.
We are also introducing an automatic winder for our project...
Update #8:
Kickstarter has been sent for approval!
It has taken many days to finalise everything but the wait should be worth it! We are expecting it to be approved by the very latest the...
Hi DrLuigi,
You're correct, when retailed Strooder will roughly cost $450. The reasons vary as to why the price level set but with everything we do we are trying to make extrusion cheaper and...
Update #7:
We have new gears and a motor encoder. The gears transfer higher tourqe and the encoder is giving smoother control. Both are making the filament more consistent.
Also a big welcome...
Update #6:
The filming has been completed after 2 days of madness. Over the next few days we will be working to create the final edit, which should be complete by the end of next week. The video...
This is an invaluable suggestion. We are 100% certain that all UK shipping of Strooder will be fully assembled. We are currently still trying to find the best shipping option for international...

Within the next week we are meeting with a big contender in the 3D printer market who we are taking Strooder to be showcased and tested.
We are also going to be locally beta testing and potentially...
Hi Emu,
This is great advice.
However the Strooder will actually be shipped fully assembled to avoid all these complications and ensure the end user has as little troubles as possible. This is...
Update #4:
Happy Early May Bank Holiday to those of you enjoying your extra day off, we've been working, but we don't mind at all as all development are on track for the launch in less than two...
