Personal thoughts about Formlabs :)

@MaximLobovsky It’s a tough question to answer.

Hobby users cannot pay $4,000+ for something they don’t make money from. Professional users also want lower costs.

I think an acceptable price is something like what used Form 3 is going for now, from around $600 to $1,500. A bundle is achievable around $1,500 to $2,000.

My personal experience. I bought my Form 3B for $800. It came with 3 resin tanks, 2 build plates, and several resins. The price decided that I bought a used one.

Current Form 4 prices in Europe $5,200 for just the printer, and $8,400 for the full kit. Open Material Mode costs another $3,589

I like to test new things and experiment, but I cannot afford these prices.
