It's pretty amazing to see the adoption rate of 3D printers in the last few years, and the kind of creativity they bring out in people. I've seen quite a few variations, particularly while walking through the 3D printer villages at the MakerFaires I've already attended (either as a vendor or just a visitor), but the one that's stood out for me is the kit currently being offered on Kickstarter by our friends at OpenBeam, the Kossel Pro:

I've always found delta robots to be particularly interesting, given the speed and accuracy they can move at (plus they're just cool to watch!) It's definitely worth taking a look if you're in the market for a 3D printer, especially since it'll be made available using stamped/injected molded parts for a higher degree of accuracy & tolerance than what you might find with laser cut or 3D printer parts/brackets. We can't wait for ours!
