Its cool tech but far from Consumer hands. While open source its also rather expensive to build (at least for end users). The projector costs more than 2k and the rotating platform is almost 1k. Other parts I did not check :)
If it would be 1k or so I would build one
Maybe today but that was true for FDM 3dprinters too eventually they have become cheaper. Let us hope for the same with this.
True, but still 3-4k for printing some parts in less than a minute. It is not for me and you, but can be useful.
Oh for sure super useful. But when he said its open source I was ready to start building this thing. But 5k+ in total build costs is a bit steep for me.
