    Have you successfully been able to get to 50 microns?

    According to the specs they were getting 100 microns at highest resolution but maybe they have improved on that I haven't seen anything

    100 microns is so 2012...

    In the last few weeks, I've seen a lot of people touting reprap machines going as low as 20 microns. That said, I'm running my company's ToM at 270 micron and that has been adequate for my purposes so far.

    you guys must have a lot to time on your hands, even if you printed at 50 microns that would take well over 12 plus hours to print depending on the size of the object.

    It might also require hardware changes to the machine in order to get to 50 micron resolution.

    We will all get a chance to experiment soon... Orson test it out when you get your printer and let us know.. I'd be interested to see your results.
