They have another few printers that print money:
Full writeup and more pics over at DefDist.
My suspicions were correct when I criticized the function test of this printed AR-15 lower:
The new AR lower was SLA and FDM printed. The FDM printer was a used Dimension SST, and the material was p400 ABS.
A quick look at the Dimension SST page and….. Cost: $32,900 *facepalm* I’m sure theirs was like $1000 max on the used market though right? haha
They go on to say this at the end – “the big takeaway is that you can do what we did on a printer like the Ultimaker or RepRap. The pieces can be made cheaply” haha yea… OH it will print. Do that and tell me how many rounds you get out of it.
Like I said numerous times… people can keep shitting bricks over this, but I’ll only be impressed when thousands of youtube videos pop up from people with RepRaps and Makerbots who are pumping out their own mags and lowers. I know it will happen, and I wish this project would lean more in that direction.
Thoughts?
