Partdaddy, SeeMeCNC's New 15 Foot Tall Delta 3D Printer
Last week we showed off the largest ever Delta style 3D printer known to man. It was a 13 foot high machine created by a Japanese company. Well, here we are just two weeks later and that record has already been surpassed. SeeMeCNC has announced that they have created a 15 foot high Delta style 3D printer called PartDaddy, capable of printing objects as high as 10 feet, with a 4 foot diameter. The machine will be unveiled at Maker Faire Detroit this coming weekend. More details on this crazy machine can be found here: http://3dprint.com/9864/partdaddy-seemecnc-3d-printer/
Below is a picture of the 3D Printer which they call the PartDaddy.
What are your thoughts? Let us know if you maker it out to Maker Faire to see this monster?

It looks nice. They only show a frame and their electronics panel. All that was posted yesterday. They didn't show the mechanisms or the extruder, I hope they have those built already. They have a few days, it's this Saturday, I think.

So how long does it take to print a part that's 10 feet high and 4 feet in diameter? Do they have special giant reels of filament for it, or a team of people taking shifts feeding it night and day?

I'd be willing to bet they haven't tried to make a part that actually takes up even a large percentage of the volume. If they have a reliable filament extruder, there's no reason not to make extra large batches of filament to match (or more smartly, exceed) the mass of whatever they're making.
