Sorry for the weird cell-phone posting.

Yep. Seriously expensive... Just my portion was about what I paid for the stratasys.

It's the 350.

The digital materials are amazing... I've already been printing comolded parts. I can variate durometers across a surface. And the resin has already proven to be strong enough for use as machining fixtures.

I can print a soft rubber textured skin onto the outside of a hard part. Or I've been using very low durometer blocks, integral to the surface, as springs to push fixtures back open. Very wicked technology.

But what was I to do? I have a plastic-extrusion printer and I lead the pack. Then Ty gets a plastic extrusion printer, and I get a hold of an objet. Lead the pack!

You know you are making me look worse than usual.

Gawds I wish I lived a little closer to you... The horrendous creations we could produce.

I am seriously jealous about an Objet 350... What are the material costs in comparison to say filament abs?

Cool beans!
