Make Magazine Shootout Special Edition
This is from an email I received this morning from MAKE Magazine.
NOVEMBER 21, 2013
One year ago, MAKE released the inaugural Ultimate Guide to 3D Printing, highlighting in-depth reviews of 15 of the latest 3D printers. It was an incredible project, and we instantly knew we’d do it again.
In the just-released Ultimate Guide to 3D Printing 2014, we’ve increased our test to 23 cutting-edge printers, including resin-based machines, deltabots, and fused filament fabricators that range from $300 to $3,000. It’s the most comprehensive 3D printing roundup review yet, and also includes printing projects, reviews of scanners and filament extruders, tips, notes, and more. Packed with the latest information, it's the perfect place to start on your rapid prototyping endeavors.
