Is this behemoth a beast or a dinosaur?
AMONG THIS GROUP OF FAIRLY DIMINUTIVE 3D PRINTERS, THERE WAS ONE HEAVYWEIGHT: Bits from Bytes’ 3DTouch, one of the most impressive 3D printers aimed at the low-cost market. It’s also one of the most expensive, prices at $3,490-$4,370. The 3DTouch is impressively built: with its massive, milled-steel connectors, it literally towered above the competition. It seemed as if it could engulf some of it’s competitors on its build – or perhaps print one out.

Hello, just an observation, the Torture test printing images of Bukobot8 and 3D touch are the same.
The torture test image for the 3D touch has now been updated. Thanks for pointing that out to us.
It is fantastic to have a cheaper option on the market makes 3D printing more accessible to a wider market.

These days, 3D Printer service is very popular and if you are getting the same in cheaper cost then there could be nothing better than this.
