Hi guys check out this KickStarter :

What you think, i would love talking about this to get your opinions and stuff smile

In a nutshell you can print an object with PolySmooth then put it in the Polysher and then you get a perfectly smooth part smile

What do you guys think? smile

Cheers

Interesting, small, proprietary filament, not compatible with ABS or XT. But it looks like a nice product if that meets your needs.

Why do you think it would be great that we could you ABS inside? smile
I dont know what is XT, is it a new polishable material as well?
Thank you

Many of us rarely use PLA and prefer ABS. We can buy ABS at our local stores or online. ABS is inexpensive and very durable. I think your Polysher filament may not be as durable if it dissolves with alcohol.

Colorfabb XT is a filament that is superior to PLA or ABS in many ways. Some people are beginning to use it exclusively. It does not warp like ABS. has a very nice finish and is durable.

If your machine was larger and could use acetone it would be great. But, I think acetone would damage its clear plastic cover.

I like the Polysher concept, I do. I would like to see the next version be larger and work with ABS or XT.

Good luck!
