I remember that video. Hey, I wonder what happened to that $3000 Micronics SLS printer? Wasn't it a kickstarter? I remember that being a big deal at the time, and I guess it suddenly disappeared?

> We got bought by Formlabs in 2024

> Formlabs sells their own SLS printer for $25000

> Formlabs charges a license fee to be able to print with custom materials like Applied Science did [0]

ah, well that explains it.
