Hey Guys,

For the past year and a half, I have been working on a 3D printer that can automatically eject prints.

Here is a quick demo of the printer.

I also configured the machine for infinite build purposes.

I realize that their are a lot of technical issues that need to be ironed out smiling smiley But I think it's a cool design worth exploring. My goal is to fully document the design to help others build a mass production/infinite printer.

An industrial version of the same technique. They have a downloadable version of Cura, I believe, that renders the correct Gcode for 45 degree slicing.

Nice work. Lots of time put into that project. Did yo make the entire printer or modify one? How is it for taller, wider prints?

Is the software open source? I couldn't find it. Did you think about tweaking the marlin firmware in order to be able to use and sd card instead of a PC software?
