Why it's in the archive
An editorial read from the Channel archive, kept in the relaunch for its coverage of 3d printing.
This device from AIO Robotics will be one big 3D printer, 3D scanner, 3D copier, and 3D fax-machine. It will begin the crowdfunding process through KickStarter next week on September 4th. The machine will even have a color touch screen! Now, what kind of money are we going to have to spend on this thing? Apparently, it will be "significantly cheaper" than MakerBot's Replicator and Digitizer, which cost $2,200 and $1,400, respectively. Forget that used, clunky car you wanted! Here comes a similarly-priced 3D printer that basically does the same things, or can print you a car!
