The Cheapest Printer, So Far... Update!

I had no idea when I posted "The Cheapest 3D Printer (So Far...)" on Saturday that I would have to provide an update on Tuesday!!  Kickstarter seems to be the place where the majority of the battle to be the first cheap 3D printer is going to be fought (and won?).

The Peachy Printer Project on Kickstarter just reset the bar by offering a 3D printer for less than $100 dollars.  Here is their pitch (check out the video below):

"You know how everyone and their Grandmother has a paper printer? Well, wouldn't it be cool if everyone and their Grandmother had a 3D printer? It definitely would, but this isn't a reality for 2 reasons:

- 3D Printers still quite expensive.

- They aren't very simple. Good luck teaching your Grandma how to use one!
