- Smooth Octopus: Pen up. Nice plotter. Not self-calibrating. Java path planning.

A Modest Proposal: a Delta Robot 3D printer
In 2011 I proposed a Delta Robot 3D printer.
In 2012 my friend Johan created the Rostock 3D printer. He even demo’d it for the first time at my Seattle Maker Fair table.
What I’m saying is good things happen if you watch this channel.
