interesting idea. I wonder if it can print on other printers like an Ultimaker or things like that. I know there are filaments with things like wood, bamboo, chalk and sparkly stuff powders inside but that is really something else!

For those with "regular" 3D printers I found this. Not sure what it would work on but worth asking the company before purchasing |

| Re: Carbon fiber 3D printer I'm wondering the same thing. Carbon Fiber is a composite material so there's obviously a lot more than just a "filament" being ejected from a nozzle like a normal 3D printer, You have to weave it, that's how carbon fiber is strong. Although I think I just might of answered how they laminate the fibers.

carbon fiber "printer" would have to add some type of adhesive between the layers for everything to bond together. | |

Does anybody have one of these yet? Our shop is looking into a 3d printer, and Carbon fiber would be an awesome material to play with!! Travis |

So far, these have been sort of a disaster. Some bad business practices, and it screams "we had this cool proof of concept and started a business, but now we can't get it to work perfectly." This has happened a ton of times in the more breakthrough 3D printer world. I'm still waiting for the laser cured resin printers to be viable.

Curious where you are seeing this about the printer. I have followed it for about a year off and on...not really seen anything bad about it, save they would not sell one to the print a gun guy. Private reviews seem to show it working as claimed.... Later EddieO Quote:
