Thats some serious hardware they have there.

I'm surprised that the printed chair doesn't undergo horrible warping. Then again, it looks like all the printed areas are of the same width and so should cool at around the same rate.

The arm looks a little overkill for the tool head.

I should probably merge that thread with this one

I noticed that his granule feed head doesn't extrude evenly. It's got a consistently inconsistent feed, resulting in regular blobs. Obviously that's not a feature of every granule extruder, else the 3mm filament we buy would have that feature too. Perhaps the terminal end of his feed screw is too close to the orifice?
