What happens if here is a jam in the material?

[neilcoo]

yeah, totally agree. Why is the resolution so crappy on these cheaper printers? Is it really so technically difficult/expensive to do better?

good for new school labs

Wait the cubify site says 0.125 mm printing resolution. Uh oh bad reporting. Someone should probably tell PC World to double check their facts.

[Sirisian]

25 thousandths of an inch is 0.635 mm. That's a horrible resolution. I don't care if it takes all day to print, just make it print with less than 0.05 mm resolution in all axis. If you can see lines on the model that's bad. You would have thousands of orders from geeks if you could make it for less than 1500 USD.

100% agree

[Craydon]

Competition for the makerbot? Good, wake me when I can get a cheap 3D printer for $100.
