Yesterday we saw Ord Solutions announce and launch their Rova-Paste 3D printer which was capable of printing with both paste and heated filament. Today another company, based in Mexico is taking this same idea a step furthers. MakerMex has just announced their MM1 3D printer which they will put on Kickstarter next month. The MM1 is capable of printing with both paste and heated plastic as well, but also features a modular design for quick printer upgrades.
