the 'kamer maker' is mostly hot air for now. The flashy presentation is just to generate some funding which they succeeded in. I wonder if they also told their funders that they were shooting for the moon.

Hi Jelly !

I wonder would it be more preactical to take a good model, split it into sections like a rubex cube.

Then with a farm of 5-8 ultimaker printers, run off each section and with a little glue, perfect.. finishes product.

Also there would be a lot more control, as when one piece failed, it could be easily reprinted.

With this one big wonder printer, one mistake and the whole thing can go in the bin ?

Not to mention the printing speed, volume goes up with the cube of the length! They'd better use a massive nozzle for any performance at all...

yes, bigger nozzle always helps:
