Looks like the big companies in the US are going to be too late to this market. China announced the dreammaker, a small 3D printer for the desktop. Its spec’s look pretty good, and it should be around 1100 US, but…the pics concern me, the gears are cut from plastic sheets, and the belts look pretty whimpy. I would be interested in the reviews on this.
