Singapore-based company, Pirate3D, took their super affordable Buccaneer 3D printer idea to Kickstarter to raise fund to build it. I bet they never expect the response to be so overwhelming. They raised their targeted USD100K in 10 minutes.
Normally, when I see 3D printers, I am expecting an ugly piece of equipment with many piping, tubing around it. This is something you will NOT see on Pirate3D Buccaneer 3D printer. It looks nothing like 3D printer I have seen. In fact, it looks sleek and expensive. But once you know the price, you will be blown away (in a good way).
The price of this sleek equipment starts from USD397. This price is something you will not find on any 3D printer. Here is a comparison of a 3D printer.
And here is the Kickstarter video.
