The 3D Sidekick, now on Kickstarter, is a self-extruding direct pellet printhead, capable not only of saving you enormous amounts of cash with 3D printing materials, but also allowing you to turn your gantry or CNC machine into a large scale 3D printer. Pellets cost a fraction of the price to print with, and there are a host of other benefits as you can use the printhead as an add-on to your current equipment without using more space, and with the convenience of using your current controls and system.
