A Kinetic Sculpture: Simple Elegant 3D Printing On Kickstarter

Kickstarter has been very popular in the maker world, allowing enterprising designers and engineers to see their great ideas become products. In making new products often prototypes are required so it should come as no surprise that the users of Kickstarter may also use 3D printers. But Kickstarter also helps to develop and produce new 3D Printers. This circle of innovation is amazing to watch and interact with.

Recently the team by DeltaMaker started their campaign and early backers were big winners, snatching up printers under $500 (great technique to get some erly funding buzz). Those early backers got the campaign off to a great start and some KickTraq projections show the campaign upside to be over half a million dollars. The DeltaMaker team even uses other kickstart technology as part of their almost artistic interpretation of the future evolution of 3D printers. In the process they seem to have created a pleasing new option for hobbists, designers, and engineers looking to utilize additive manufacturing.
