Just wanted to clear a couple of things up:
- Metallic PLA would be really cool, but sadly, the metallic bunny was spray-painted.
- The photo of MOD-t parts are actually parts for the "look-like, feel-like" prototypes in our Pasadena lab.
We do, though, hope to have stacks of actually factory parts before too long!

Thanks for clearing those points up (I've gone ahead and edited my previous post to correct my error.)
I should probably take a moment to reiterate that I am not in any way associated with New Matter, I'm just a very enthusiastic backer who is eager to pass along what news I can find. (perhaps over eager since I clearly got a few bits wrong...)

Well, this update is pretty light on technical goodies, the Idea Lab crew is hosting a "Tech Crawl and Mixer" where New Matter is showing off some iterations of the printer and some prints from it. Interesting, but unless you're near Pasadena, Ca. it's not really realistic to attend.
The technical update portion is short enough to quote:

Happy Halloween, and sorry it took me till now to post this up. In my defense, the update itself was a little bit late too. Mostly it talks about their attending the Inside 3D Printing Conference in Santa Clara, California. Just enough to make me wish I was able to go there, but not enough to really go over what was presented there. I wouldn't mind hearing more about this conference if there's anyone here that attended.
On to news about the printer itself, though:

I am really sorry about missing last week's update, and when the previous one even hinted at it being an update with some actual news on the printer itself at that.

cool :-)
Some padding because 'cool' as a comment is apparently too short - who knew ?

Hey, I'm actually prompt with an update for once! Though this one doesn't have any technical news, it does have a good bit of news for the project as a whole:

All right, just to make things easy this cold, cold morning, I'm just going to directly quote the tech update portion of last night's update email.

Sorry I missed last week's update... It was a "Happy Thanksgiving" mailer. Cute but not entirely substantive.
For substance, though this one makes up for that.
