    The problem is that most people aren’t making RepRap printers from scratch, they’re buying kits which has everything included.

    Bambu makes decent gear, I don’t think we want to have the only option being Chinese machines which always makes compromises to make it cheaper. And that’s coming from a person who uses Chinese printers.

      When you shut everyone else down, they’re the only guys left with the freedom to do business.
