Hello, I am Origo. I am a 3D printer for ten year olds. You can draw your very own things in 3Dtin and I'll build them for you in plastic. Right now, I am just an idea. I will be as easy to use as an Xbox or Wii. I'll be as big as three Xbox 360s and as expensive as three Xbox 360s. I will sit on your desk and quietly build your ideas, drawings and dreams. There are other 3D printers. But none will be as easy to use as I will. None will be as reliable or work as hard for you. I'm not a kit or an industrial machine. I'm not complicated. I'm an appliance, like a toaster or a microwave. Only I'm purple and make your stuff.
