The Printrbot jr. is a great choice for people who are new to 3D printing. It's small, portable, and IT FOLDS! image

 

The jr. is slightly simpler than other printers because it ONLY uses PLA (no ABS) and does not come with a heated platform. PLA is non-toxic and biodegradable with a lower melting temperature – a safer choice for kids. It also uses one less motor than our other printers, greatly simplifying the process of moving the Z axis.

 

Features include:

 

  • 4″ x 4″ x 4″ build volume
  • PLA only (no ABS) – approximately 1/2 lb included with purchase
  • Astonishingly light at 6.3 lbs (when weighed apart from a power supply)
  • Compact – the bed folds up for easy carrying and packing
  • Fan mount kit with Fan included
  • Laptop power supply included
  • Future Upgrades:
  • A battery pack and LCD (sold separately) will allow truly wireless printing.

 

We are giving away a Printrbot jr to one lucky winner for FREE-- that's a value of USD $499.00.  In return, we simply ask that you write a detailed review of your experience with the Printrbot. Think about what would be helpful to you if you were reading another member's review, and let your friends on element14 know what you think about the Printrbot.

 

And did we mention you can print your own Yoda?

  • I would have loved to road test one of these. To bad i joined this site too late. I would like to see how one these or one of its big brothers fair in the automotive field. maybe print out a one time use tool if tool isnt available on that model. Even something as temperary as a bracket to hold two tools together could be useful. So many time i wished i had an extra hand or wedge to help me. Obviously time would be the big issue here as they have slow print times.
