CNET Review – An Approachable, Powerful 3D Printer

April 26, 2013

Many thanks to Rich Brown of CNET for doing this review.

Here’s a summary:

Almost exactly one year ago, we made the decision to enter the fray of 3D printing. What we saw then, and what we see now, was a disruptive technology, positioned to change business, that was beginning to make its way into the desktop market.
