Topic: New printer heading your way

Hey guys,
A co worker and I are building and designing a 3D printer. We are tired of fixing stuff on our "name brand" printer every few hours. Ours is constructed out of aluminum instead of plastic and has a build platform of about 12" x 20" and can build roughly 14" tall on a heated print table. The plan is for dual extruding heads for multiple colors or dissolving support material etc. We are looking for input on what you would like to see put into this design. Please feel free to message me for more details and also to give suggestions. We would like to start a pre-order for these very soon so the more interest, the better. Thanks!

Charlie

Photos? What hotend?

What makes your 3D printer better than the dozens that are currently on the market?

What is your "name brand" printer?

Doesn't it just take forever to make something that large?
