Charles, we sell the raw resin because we have tons at our shop from molding our parts, and we actually stumbled upon a demand for small quantities of it. We went down to deliver a printer to TekVenture, the makerspace in Ft. Wayne Indiana, and they had a small desktop hand powered plastic injection press that they teach people to machine little molds, and melt plastic and press it into the mold. So, we figured we'd offer up small quantities of the raw resin to makerspaces and anyone who wants to play around with melting plastic and stuff?

Seen it before, have fun trying to buy one, build one etc... It's an oversized "hot-end" basically, but still looks way cool. Just have not seen one ever in real life, other than on the website?
