what can't this 3d printer create and when year can I buy a replicator that can create infinite abilites-omnipotence that will wreck the economy?

Andrew, few of us spend time on ice blocks, horseshoes or ditto machines any more, and that didn't wreck the economy. On the plus side, think of all the oil that'll be saved from not shipping little plastic things from the other side of the planet. There is one being developed, in Massachusetts, that'll make electronics (circuitry). China's 3D printing housing and one's being printed in Amsterdam. Whoosh! Time flies!

The best way to do anything with this machine is not purchase it. It's a nightmare. It will breakdown mere seconds after your warranty runs out. Save yourself the headache and get any other printer on earth instead of an HP!

I own a software development company. If you want I can create an application for you at very low cost that can use this printer to print whatever you want

It all depends on the shape of the printer cartage. Most likely the printer cartage won't last that long, but it is a good kit, I must say. I guess, it could be possible under some circumstances.

Yes it is. It can print a chain link for example. However, you must have a good grasp of CAD programs to design your stuff and output them to be used for the Makerbot.

Not without a spendy mod. You'd be better off with a factory setup duplex laser printer.

Definitely not. The machine falls apart and should be taken off the market. Customer service is a nasty joke.

That model is terrible. Send it to recycler, then purchase an Epson Workforce WF-2530 !! A great printer!

I don't have any cradles to sell but this is a perfect example of the benefits of owning a 3-D printer. It could bang this out in no time! Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I have no idea. This is literally the worst piece of crap printer I have ever owned.

I have no idea, sorry.I can say that this is their most simple machine and is less likely to break than the more expensive machines, enjoy

I agree with the others... Very good value and very reliable. I would only choose the New Makerbot if sleek appearances justified the high cost... If it was running in a storefront for an architectural firm, for example. I would have a Makerbot running up front, and an army of flash forges in the back room... Perhaps there is an analogy hidden somewhere there... But I will leave you with that.

I'm not a professional for 3D printers, I can not answer this. Sorry to disappoint.I'd recommend checking the TDP and power consumption of the printer.

Makerware software (by makerbot) and Replicator G software (open source) both work with all replicators. You'll need to export your designs as .stl or .obj files in Sketchup for example.

Is it worth the money: yes. Can I build airsoft guns with it: no. At least, not any guns worth $2000. These printers aren't magic and it takes a lot of work and patience to get anything complex working. Most online designs for download don't work and very few are done by talented engineers.

I absolutely have no idea.Bring it to a machine shop and they'll fabricate one for it.

The authentic answer is NONE because the kit was Dead On Arrival.Really cheap components and I would urge you to stay away from it. Invest more and go mindstorms
