They are really cheap, a good investment. [nt]

Can you tell us the maker and model of your printer? Not that I need another toy but I don't know if I can resist! [nt]

Just googled it. Surprised it's so affordable. Looks like I know what I want for Christmas!

Yes it's so good price

it is no problem if you not find it fun. I'm afraid I like this too much and there will be a $5K machine on my desktop one day.

Ever thought about printing a tourbillon?

I have the files but it's a lot of parts.

Nice pic, cool escapement wheel. [nt]

I know these machines aren't new but they still amaze me. That looks like a strong and substantial part as well.

There are no movements with all 3D printed parts (minus jewels and balance wheel spring)? (nt)

will take the same time as wait for a Rolex Pepsi.

That long? (nt)

Some parts take around 6 hours so it's a long wait. [nt]
