It's cool how it extrudes pellets like the huge SeeMeCNC delta. The surface finish looks pretty bad though. I was kind of expecting that a 1 million dollar machine would have more than one nozzle..... And it should be able to finish the exterior with milling after printing. A few extra axises wouldn't cost that much more. Sooner or later I'll have to make my own large printer. The materials would only cost a few thousand for something that size.


SeeMeCNC should print a functional surface to air missile on their huge delta printer for publicity. That cartesian one has a bigger XY build area, but the delta can do tall parts.

Nooo! Seemecnc do not do that.

Then it will be reclassified as some other bullshit and we will not be able to import it.

PartDaddy can probably do that right now, but the build would have to be in a vertical position to fit the build volume. Then it would lay down flat and you add the drivetrain and junk to make it go zoom.

I would donate a golf cart if SeeMeCNC would like to be the second company to 3-D print a custom golf cart body.
