Yeah we saw that it's pretty cool, but it seems extremely slow compared to colouring the filament before it goes into the extruder.
I see your adaption as Dot Matrix printing with a 3D printer and coloured pens, almost printing in pixels with the coloured markers - which don't get me wrong is awesome! but you would have to significantly speed it up to come in line with a normal 3D print.
Also have you got an example of printing something in 3D? as in a fully 3D object rather than a 2D object printed out? (the world map looks like a SVG image that's been split into several vectors) For example could you print a Tiger out in orange and have your machine colour the orange and black on it? all around the body, not on one face.Last edited by Geoff; 05-10-2014 at 06:11 PM.
