Additive build (3d printing) vs subtractive (CNC mill) and were to start...

I thought this might be useful to the subset of boat builders who also have 3d printers:

Here's your farm machine, Jaysen.

If it runs like a typical Prusa, it's going to be hard to beat.

Yeah. I've been looking at prussa and the folks that are using them as core to other scalable products. I'm running into a small problem though... https://flex3drive.com. The "multi-material" capabilities with full embedding are ... tuff to ignore. Think dropping a petg flex arm between two blocks with no fasteners and zero clearance. Now think about electrical connections and conductive materials. Suddenly I can build crap that needs very little assembly.

Also can print 3mm line with 1.75mm booger string. Which makes all my tubes "spirals" and 2hr prints.

I haven't pulled the trigger on this yet, and I may just use it on one customer printer with a couple vorons (still lusting for those) as my workhorses. I need to get away from these tubes though. taking up all my print time.
