our team has a Stratasys Maxum FDM machine, prints ABS plastic. its good for some things but, well, i'm a machinist and i think thats still the way to go for most stuff. not to mention you get things done a heck of a lot faster on a mill.

just what i think.

Re: pic: 108 Rapid Crab Prototyping
I prefer a mill, too. A small, red one sitting in our machine shop. All manual. LOL... there's 3 digital ones and 4 manual ones in K-T I think... but the only one I know how to use is the one in the robotics area and I work at K-T.

I agree, milling is the way to be, but as a prototype, this I find is cheaper. Besides, whats cooler than a crab drive that was printed and works? Obviously I wouldn't put this on a robot, it would be destroyed before you knew it, but for proof-of-concept, its great. Who knows though, one day we may see an all Lexan (or some other strong plastic) robot...how cool would that be?
