Matchbox Alpha printer...

Post by mhackney »

I don't recall hearing about this before but just ran across it. Looks like it will ship win 2 weeks.

11" (300mm) diameter x 14" (350mm) tall work envelope
auto leveling but not sure what that is as there is no info on it.
looks like linear rails and all aluminum effector and carriages.
the ball ends look cheesy, they may be fine but look under engineered

Don't bother watching the video. It's 5 seconds of nothing.

Very little detail considering it's available for pre order now and ships in 1-2 weeks.

I saw that printer at CES, it looks interesting just a tad undersized on the linear rails and the uprights
