Dim3printing LLC spent 18 months developing their 3DFormer pen, targeted toward STEAM education and field tested at Denton High School in Texas. The pen boasts on-the-fly, ultra-wide flow speed control which allows for continuous variable filament speed control, ergonomic design for easy gripping and precision in movement and an advanced cooling technology which prevents nozzle clogging and assures that heat is dissipated quickly. This 3D printing pen is intended for use in schools, and so is priced under $100 to make it affordable -- in fact, the retail price will be just $69.99. The 3DFormer has launched on Kickstarter, with a goal to raise $20K by April 18. You can read the whole story here: http://3dprint.com/53857/3dformer-pen-kickstarter/
