Sorry it's taken me so long to finally get around to posting this.
The whole mission of this project is to encourage hands-on learning and creativity. That being said, what could be a better way of promoting the this idea than by giving away a few free printers?
Here's the catch: I will only be giving units to teachers who are nominated since this is primarily an education project. You can nominate yourself or a friend or a well deserving teacher. Depending on how many people are nominated and how many units are purchased through donations, I will determine how many free printers are given away. The cost to produce these free units is included in all (except the basic model) donations. So, the more units people buy, the more I will be donating. Of course, not everyone nominated will recieve a unit. The winners of the free units will be chosen based on why you think they (or you, if you are nominating yourself)deserve a 3d printing kit. Just leave a comment with the individual's name, school they teach at, and your reason why. I'll be choosing the recipients sometime in October.
What will you recieve? I haven't made a final decision as this will also be determined by how well funded this project is so let everyone know about it! It will most likely be a mid-range version of the classroom kits with a laser scanner and a full complement of teaching materials.
