Portable 3D Printer

I watched the video in which you made the portable 3D printer. Is it possiable for me to pay you to build one for me. I would pay for all the materials of coarse.

Hey there! I've been wanting to get into 3D printing for some time now, but money's always been pretty tight for me. On top of that, most people don't understand what I do and most of those people assume…

Labor will probably be larger than material costs. What were you thinking this would cost in the end?

I figured that. And I don't really know but I figure it would cost less than one I could just buy anywhere else, besides I would like to have a portable one.

I would highly doubt that Ben making a one-off would be cheaper than buying an already produced one out there. Ben is an engineer and having an engineer fab something at engineer rates would probably not come out cheaper than the fab costs for interns or cheaper assembly labor they would have at a 3d printer company. As well as the time it would take for him to design it too. It's not uncommon for consulting firms to charge $100-200 an hour for an engineers time.
