Remember, they are too busy making and shipping to even post an update on Kickstarter... :)

They have started to redesign a few printed parts to be done in acrylic layering laser cut sheets. Not sure if that is really better or not, but the printing of parts apparently has been slowing down production.

Yes, but at almost 5 times the price. :)

Actually it reminds me more of the Aon, but at double the cost... which I don't see a thread on here

EDIT: fixed the missing thread on the AON. :D

If you have a 3D printer, you are already an honorary member of the More Money Than Sense Club!

Haha, that's pretty much what a colleague said start of the week when he asked what I used my printer for besides printing stupid things.
Told him about some practical solutions in house like for the shower and holding the door open. His remrak was that he wouldn't spend 2000€ on something that holds the door open.

I have 4 young kids, do you know how many dioramas I am going to have to make, a 3D printer is going to make that easier. Factor in that half my kids or twins and they will have the same projects at the same time. Then there is fixing toys instead of throwing them out.
