Topic: Filament Extruder

I see MakiBox has an extruder kit for sale now. I couldn't find any info on it other than a BOM from Makibox . I wonder if it using a PID for heat control?

It is not ready for sale, no details, it is not ready for production and they have not shipped a single unit.

Ya it does say 10 to 12 week lead time plus shipping time. Look like they are accepting payment now.

Re: Filament Extruder

I think they'll eventually ship, but they've missed a lot of their estimated ship dates. I think the original estimated ship date was April 2012.
