A machine that is interested in 3D printing but can't afford high performance? It doesn't matter, this Curiosity eWaste educational 3D printer will surely satisfy you. It is an open source 3D printing platform created by enterprise engineer Marc Rogivue with the help of some students from the University of Hong Kong. It is designed for 3D printing novices or children aged 10-12. The biggest advantage is that all DIY components add up. Just $120. 
There are many young creators and educators who want to get in touch with 3D printing technology, but the price of thousands of dollars for consumer machines is hard to accept. To solve this pain point, Rogivue and his partner decided to create a super economical device. So, the above Curiosity eWaste finally appeared. 
According to China's 3D printing network, this machine is actually a recycling project, which is a "home made" 3D printer assembled with old hardware such as optical disk drive and PC power supply. The development team hopes that it will not only show users how to make a 3D printer, but also educate young people about environmental protection, resource recycling and reuse. 
Its design is very clever, the X-axis drive is the optical drive, the Z-axis drive motor is the floppy drive, the frame and the base are made of laser-cut wood, and other electronic components are installed on it, including the Arduino that can control the prefabricated Marlin firmware. board. To get a Curiosity eWaste, you can choose to find the accessories yourself and assemble them, or you can choose to purchase a $151 ready-made kit.
The printer is easy to use, just download the free control software Printrun/Pronterface and the slicer Cura. They and this machine are well compatible with a variety of operating systems such as Windows, Mac and Linux.
Currently, the development team is planning to bring this super economical 3D printer to Kickstarter to start crowdfunding. In addition, they also hope that after the large-scale manufacturing, the price will be reduced to a little below 100 dollars.
