Last night on stream we unboxed and setup the brand new @Prusa3D CoreONE+INDX 8 tool 3d printer and went right into a full multi colour torture test print.
And it came out great, honestly the best out of the box toolchanger experience ive had yet. cant wait to print more with it!

And just like that, the first PRUSA Edition INDX units are officially shipping! 🚀
It’s been a long road getting here, but we’ve pushed through, and a new era of multi-tool printing is underway. I can’t wait to see this new chapter of color and material combination printing unfold!
Wondering when new orders are opening up? When factory assembled is coming? Lets stick with the classic FRIDAY answer. 😉
Happy printing!

The 3D Printing bills in the US are because of an org called Everytown. The company supporting their effort is Physna and they are partnered with Palantir. They have said they want to bring this to the EU and beyond. Created this site to help with info: 3dprintingisnotacrime.org/

The ACLU just informed me that it’s very uncommon and very much not protocol, but you can go up and let your voice be heard in the appropriations committee in the Senate. So that’s what we’re gonna do. See you Monday. luma.com/xy5c2d2j

Thangs is proud to be part of a diverse coalition of innovators, creators, and privacy advocates that oppose California's AB2047, which would mandate surveillance technology on 3D printers. Thangs' CEO Marleen Vogelaar, along with other 3D printing leaders, was interviewed by the LA Times and discussed the potential wide-ranging implications of this bill for the industry.

The site @joeltelling built has been updated! the3dprintingnerd.com/ab2047 Everyone around the world can share their voice with Appropriations!
Has anyone seen any official public stance from @Prusa3D standing against California AB2047 legislation that effectively kills OpenSource 3D printing in California?

I know we are a Chinese Manufacture, but we stay with you @David_Tobin @3dprintingnerd @joeltelling for opposition to AB 2047. Any my Chinese fellows should support this too if you can. @BIQU_Makers @BigTreeTech @Sovol3d @eibos3d @Creality3dP ...

This month marks 10 years of @CocoaPress! What started as a 2014 intro to engineering class in high school has become a small business with employees and hundreds of printers sold🥹
Join my trip down memory lane as I recount working on chocolate printing for a full decade❣️
