Bigest print to date- update #54

[rylangrayston]

This video and more pic can be seen in update #54

This rocket is the biggest print yet however I must say its not the size of this print that excites me but the fact that since the printer dose things this size without a hitch, that gives me the impression that
40cm isn’t any where near the limit I think some day we will look back and laugh at our selves referring to these prints as "Big".

here are some pics:

I'm really impressed with not only the size of this print but the consistency of the finish along the length of the rocket.

As awesome as this is I cant help but notice this update has glossed over the fact that update 52 ( released a couple of hours prior to this) announced a shipping date slip to September - December.

Awesome rocket though.

We had a long conversation here at peachy about how to make sure people didnt feel we glazed over the new shipping dates,
thats why in update 53 and 54 the very first line we wrote links you to update 52.
We also thought that the content of update 52 would get the best reach if it had its own update because our backers get an email for each and every update we do.
We want as many backers to see our shipping date updates because when people don't we get a large number of emails from people wondering if there printer has been shipped or what is going on, replying to all those emails is time consuming so its in our interest to keep everyone as informed as possible.
Hope that makes sense/ makes our intentions clear.

I dont know, currently we havent made plans to launch rockets again.
Were very focused on doing everything we need to do to ship printers.

Hehe. Fair enough. Considering how far down the list I am, it's all good.

I do still want to see it fly eventually

I'm somewhat amazed that the "standard" Peachy did that. I was expecting the normal Peachy to be limited to "normal FDM printer" sort of dimensions (eg. maybe 25*25*25cm), with the Pro being needed for anything much larger. It's absolutely amazing to see the standard one manage an object so large with no major defects - it could potentially go significantly larger while still maintaining adequate quality (although sooner or later waiting a week for the part to come out will be annoying).
