There are countless variations of the design and it became a staple of 3D printing with tens, if not hundreds, of thousands units world wide. You can build simple one for couple hundred dollars or you can chip in more and get the state of the art 3D printer, it’s all up to you.
It’s open functional design allows for quick maintenance. For example if our LinkSprite DIY 3D printer Prusa i3 Kit breaks you can clean it in couple seconds!
