Additive manufacturing requires a paradigm shift in technology. It will happen.
The status quo is “baby steps” IMO.

We're talking affordability not high production rates, "fast" is subjective.
talking about home use/prototyping small motors where you can take a day or 2
to sinter metal one layer at a time.
Plus $20K is a lot easier to cough up than 6 figures, not a bad starting point
which most folks will never achieve. Remember I started at the bottom self
funded before those 6 figure started rolling in,got to start somewhere,better
than no where..

If you plan on building rocket motors at any practical level, you’ll need more
than 1KW and a good investment in ancillaries. Assuming you have an
appropriate, multi-axis base and envelope, plan on investing $50K~$100K to get
set-up with an entry level system that will require a fair amount of
development time on your part. Wire or powder wont matter. It’s at least a 6
figure investment. Good, fast, cheap…you can only pick two.

Just the laser, or does this include the positioner?

The concept is awesome, the design, funky, why the thick walls and 'excessive'
passages? Looks heavy even if aluminum, CRS even worse.
But when I saw 3D printing tech 10 years ago I wondered how long it would be
before the first bi-prop. Rocket Lab has certainly kicked ass!
I have a brand new 1KW fiber laser available, anyone?
