Strooder, New Filament Extruder Project

[Strooder]

Any idea what you'll be charging for shipping to Australia?

Hi,

For international orders, the charges will be offset by the UK charges, so you will only pay the remainder. We are putting estimates on the Kickstarter page but the estimated price for shipment to Australia is roughly £30.

I seriously question the profit margin claim. It really doesn't bode well for an upstart to not understand what it takes to stay in business making a product. There's a lot more to costs to produce a product than just the cost of raw materials.

Hi JRDM,


All of our business costs have been factored in when we priced Strooder. We fully appreciate what it takes to stay a float as a business and providing the Kickstarter goal is met we will have the financial means to do so.

So I'm confused...

As of now, the Kickstarter is at about 23,000. If I back this for the 199 tier right now, when I get mine, would I be able to break up my failed prints and recycle them? I know the bot doesn't have a grinder, but it's stated somewhere that if it would fit in the feed tube, you can recycle it. Does that currently hold true, or would that be a future development?


If that is a feature already implemented in the design, I'll back it later today. I'd rather be able to do that by hand without the grinder, than not be able to recycle at all.

That is absolutely possible. As long as the plastic is cut down to the feed tube size (less than .5mm) and any contaminants are removed then you can recycle it.

If Kickstarter would ever take my card info, I'd back you today.

Congratulations for this great achievement , I am interested in this kind of machine since I saw the lyman and others. but I'm not handy and the price of other very high speed for a lower result in your post that I can see.
Besides small footprint .
Since yesterday , I hesitate to take action to buy. initially I saw that the delivery was in September but now it's October , that's when you can expect . ;-)


At the moment we can only rely on your information this is the reason why I hang a little, because I do not want to be disappointed with my purchase .


1 / According to some articles I see as features 8 RPM , 10 RPM and even 10 to 35 RPM , there is even video on your 10 or 11 RPM .
what is the real value ? and when you say we are talking about RPM screw stepper motor because the displaced volume is not the same .
I want a machine that does not put one kilogram 10am to because I want to watch while talking about security .


2 / According to some photo here and on other articles, by the time I see an internal wooden box and when a plastic case . what it actually ?
if it's plastic I'm afraid that with time and temperature ( direct and indirect) support pin deforms .

3 / aodre I design, I'll ask for on my desk.
my wife can not say that it is not aesthetic .
