Updated Design

Quite a few people made some suggestion on the need to have a bigger resin cartridge or the ability to change different resign. So we made some modification to the 3D Printer so now the resin cartridge will be based on 500ml instead of 300ml. The location of the resin cartridge would also be more user friendly and allow people to use other available resins in the market.

It's not much different from the previous design, but we think this give the unit a cleaner look...

 

MiiCraft™ Features

Thanks everyone for all your interest and inquires via email and blog comments. We have found ourselves a partner to manufacture and assemble MiiCraft™ 3D Printer for us. We have started tooling for our design and target to have samples ready by middle of June. We will be offering our 3D Printer at price of USD 1,999

We plan to launch a campaign at Indiegogo to seek people's help in covering some of the upfront tooling costs within next couple of week. Of course there will be additional perks that will be available in our campaign.
 
Many of you asked for additional details on our printer, here are some of the key features of MiiCraft™.
