Last year, Jeremiah Clifft and his company, Cobblebot Inc., successfully funded the Cobblebot 3D printer via Kickstarter, raising over $370,000 in backing, well over the $100,000 goal. Cobblebot is back at it with a recently launched campaign to fund the new Cobblebot Little Monster 3D printer. The new, simplistic machine has a price tag of just $199 and can be upgraded to a larger build area and to use more types of filaments. The standard Little Monster has a 6" x 6" x 6" build area and can use ABS or PLA; with upgrades, the build envelope has a max of 10" x 10" x 10" and can support nylon, polycarbonate, flexible filament, LayWood, PVA, and HDPE materials. Cobblebot also intends to introduce as many as six more machines this year, including a laser cutter, engraving machine, CNC mill, and 3D scanner.
