Note that this is a kit. All the parts also look 3D printed, robots making robots. Need to see a video of this unit in action and some pics of finished parts. Delta arm printers are fun to watch in action. Here's a video of the ORIGINAL unit, of which this $800 unit is a copy:

I'm backing this one:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1122205541/overlord-3d-printer-multi-color-smart-stylish
It's available in 'Black Devil' colour scheme...
And comes fully assembled.
It can not only print on a heavily sloping platform, it can even print upside down!

One nice feature is the backup battery so that it doesn't lose its position if there's a power issue.
Another is the bed leveling which is done using only endstop switches at the top of the columns...
