CETUS3D EXTRUDER UPDATE
In an update posted to the Tiko Kickstarter this week, Tiko announced they are laying off their team and winding down operations. Now, after almost two years of development, Tiko is closing up shop. Fools and money, or something like that, and the Tiko 3D printer campaign garnered almost three million dollars in pledges. Keep in mind the Tiko launched nearly two years ago, when a bargain-basement printer still cost about $400. For just $179 USD, the backers of the Tiko printer would receive a 3D printer. The Tiko 3D printer is another 3D printer that looks innovative, and at the time of the crowdfunding campaign, the price couldn’t be beat.
It’s rare to get the inside story, and the Peachy Printer did not disappoint.įor the last few months, we’ve been watching another crowdfunding campaign on its long walk to the gallows. This was unusual not because a crowdfunding campaign failed, but because we know what actually happened. Around this time last year, backers for the Peachy Printer, an inordinately innovative resin printer, found out they were getting a timeshare in Canada instead of a printer. We’re no strangers to failed 3D printer crowdfunding campaigns. Even in this domain of nothingness, there will still be one unassailable truth: you should not buy a 3D printer on Kickstarter. Energy and entropy will be compressed into minuscule quantum fluctuations.
Sometime in the very distant future, the Universe will become the domain of black holes.
