Hello everyone, new here.. Not much into the forums these days.
But I figured I would join after I seen the drip machine.
I been in the market of getting a 3d printer for the past 2 months now.
I came to the site again cause I was about to purchase one of the printers from here (orion).
But then seen the new drip machine.. so of course, I might have to wait it out a little longer.
I am a traditional monster artist. I make latex masks and resin props as well as dabble in the 3d world.
Look forward to seeing more!
Hello

Re: Hello
Welcome to the forum!
The Rostock Max V2 kit and the preassembled Orion are the two currently available models. The DropLit is a prototype that has only existed for a few weeks. It will be available for sale some day, but right now it's still in the R&D phase.
Sounds like you're working on some cool projects! Definitely post some of your work and other projects, it would be neat to see more!

Re: Hello
Thanks for the welcome 
I was going to pick up the Rostock max about a month ago.. but feel I am to much of a handicap when
it comes to small parts and not knowing what to do. I like that machine a lot though as well as the Orion.
I was going to pick up the makerbot mini, but happy I done some more research first and came across this site/printer.
I love the resin printers, so hoping its not a very long wait I just need the forms to be there, to do throw away molds so I can fine tune
the casting.. I am lazy when it comes to small scale pieces haha. I mostly do large, you can check out my work if ya want at zhibit.org/pilcrowdesigns

The opensource community and rep-rap machines advance much more quickly, have tons of community support, and are more fulfilling to be a part of.
As far as assembling a Rostock goes, look for the assembly manual on this forum and check it out.
