I saw this posted and just thought I had to share.

This is a...

Good price, but the question is, "Do you get what you pay for?" I've seen cheap filament before, and I have purchased cheap filament before. I haven't been successful yet in buying the cheap stuff...

A company in South Africa by the name of 3D Printing Systems leases INSPIRE 3D Printers, which are industrial grade 3d printers starting at NZ$320/month. You may want to check them out. I haven't...

I dont' think there should be any reason for Makerbot to move away from ABS. Are you sure that the new Replicators can't print using ABS? This is the first I've heard of that.

It's really hard to say which patents are holding things up. Each technology has many patents. For example, the Selective Laser Sintering Patent is supposed to be a huge one. It has just recently...

My god, this is amazing. I sure hope that we see this in the near future. This could really make cheap 3D printers capable of doing a lot more than they do right now.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they add the January delivery. This printer is a huge hit, and I think it will reach around $2.5-$3 million. KS projects usually slow up as they go along.

I haven't used a Robo 3D, but I have heard they are very difficult to put together and get working.

This is one guy who just about gave up and took a slege hammer to his Robo 3d...

That's a very interesting point. Most people don't read this stuff, but this does seem a bit fishy to me.

I could see huge amounts of money exchanging hands on domains like 3dprinting and 3dprint.com, and perhaps slightly less for 3dprinters.com and 3dprinter.com.

I agree with Che. I never really liked Sketchup very much. Maybe I'm just not very advanced. I dont' know...

Apparently it is based off a real game played in Star Trek, I believe.

I agree. I feel that sellers on shapeways could simply increase their prices by 10% and see just as many sales. With people advertising their products via affiliate links, sales would definitely...

If there isn't already a way of doing it, I'm sure someone will come up with a way to use other companies filaments in the Gen 5 Replicators.

Can anyone tell me where I can buy affordable replacement parts for my old Replicator 3D printer?

Looks like they are trying to compete with Thingiverse, but honestly I dont' see them doing so. Everyone with designs already knows that they can share them on Thingiverse. There really isn't a...

I mostly use mine for having fun. I just like experimenting by changing designs around, scanning in already created things and then redesigning them. I must say that if you were to walk into my...

Honestly I can't see it being as important as a PC. PC's are basically used in everything we do today. Without them, we would still be back in the 70's.

3D Printing will revolutionize a lot of...

Just another lame Pen. Is this really any different then the 3Doodler? Aren't there patent issues here for copying off the 3Doodler, or don't they have patents for it?

Mysli, be sure to post photos!

Thanks for this! Count me in!!

Don't get me wrong. I am all for 3D printing, and I think what it can do is quite amazing. However, is it really practical to own a 3D printer that prints in plastic. Are there really enough uses...

Sounds like those filament companies make a killing. I guess that's why there are so many of them. I just wonder why the prices haven't dropped if the mark up is so high and there is so much...
