Nice, thanks for sharing!
Cool 3d printer for making axis and allies pieces….one at a time...for $1,500!

you could easily convert this to print 50 pieces off at a time.
Imagine printing a small table. It starts with the legs right? and there are four of them, no base required, and four independant points will build up until the table top is complete.
Now imagine scanning a bunch of pieces placed out in formation, instead of scanning 1 piece at a time. You could then go and print everything at once.
Only question… where do you buy the plastic cartridges (Ink if you will)? and how good is the quality of the plastic you buy?

That printer could theoretically print parts for another printer.
-
as long as they’re not moving parts. Yes. Think T-1000.
-
You could easily scan multiple pieces and have them altogther and then cut them out
-
Thats pretty damn cool. Not that expensive either. I wonder how much refills for the plastic are?

@The:

That is what I was thinking. Scan your unit and edit or design it up connected together with ‘flashing’ you’d later trim by hand and you theoretically should be able to get multiple models from a single print run.

I have looked into this. I don’t think this machine can give you the quality needed to make such small parts.

What scale can it do 1:10,1:5,1:1?
Imagine that life sized AAA
