Hahahaha I was thinking the exact same thing. And then I'd start drawing boobs.

It's a hot glue gun…. I don't get why this is impressive…
cassidy

it's a glorified hot glue gun.

Might want to take care of that full frontal nudity ad on the mobile site… Just an fyi

Fronch

Lame, good luck with that.

Great, more plastic to be discarded into the environment.

The problem is the slag on everything would be way too time consuming to clean up. After a couple projects you'd have spent so much time cleaning up it would have been worth it to just get a DIY 3D printer kit even though they are still pretty expensive.

Great! More crap ill be cleaning out of my kids hair!

Greedy bastards… They have everything they need…

I love the Chive, but I've just loaded this page with a javascript console open in Chrome.

240 errors and 10 warnings. No wonder it takes ages to load and doesn't always work.

P.S. Kind of cool, but as with comments on some of the tech sites (and above), it's a hot glue gun running ABS. At the moment, something of a solution without a problem.

I use chrome too, but I don't have the problems that you have. Have you tried antivirus? Spyware removal? Ad blocker? These are essential for modern day browsing. Your computer has chlamydia and needs help!

just curious. is there a particular reason that it cant' be manufactured in the US? is it just more cost effective to get them made in China?

Just thought that if this was a great new product that could become successful, becoming a job creator in the US could really be helpful to a few struggling folks.

China has factories just waiting around ready to produce something, anything. They can lease out that service on a one off basis. Do it in the US and you have to build your own factory… Waay higher barrier to entry.

Anon

And THAT is one of the reasons the US unemployment rate is so high and the economy so bad. Fuck China and their shitty factories. Spend some money here, build the factory here in the US and give some people a job HERE. Who cares what China has….our economy is balls deep in a gonorrhea infested ass hole. Our citizens need the jobs and the money those jobs can provide. Ship it off to China…we get nothing.

Not to mention, a lot of people will buy U.S produced goods rather than Chinese produced goods. Seriously, their products are crap and fall apart in a few months to a few years.

Usa

Sooo the get all of the USA's education and toy companies experience and then outsource to China who runs goverment run cyber hacks on American biz. Good job guys you will not be taking my money. Thanks chive for supporting the communist. These guys just want $$

8 yr olds work for a lot less money so it costs significantly less in overhead to manufacture in China.

but still

minus the shipping back to the states, a few fortune 100 CEOs have said going to China isn't worth the backlash here. Its about time they spoke up

wdh

It is more cost effective and tbh, the american work ethic is not on par with that of the chinese.. Factories in the US would not be able to meet the deadlines that the chinese can produce

Usually Jon

hehe. I guess you're right. I don't think they'd be able to work us here in US factories the way the do at Foxconn.

downfall616

i'd already paid my $ to get one but now i'm wondering how much it would have cost if it had been made in the US.
dcg

cant wait to see what level the "fucking amazing with an etch a sketch" types take this thing to. i think we will be seeing more of this thing to come…
Lukas

Make it in America and people might invest. I don't get how they expect while advertising a website that delivers these pitches to mainly Americans, that it would be a good idea to bring up the fact they're going to make these overseas..
Lloyd C.

You lost me at "we've already been to china and are working with a factor that can produce these"……..

Allen

How about finding some "were gonna at least try to make this in the USA ideas" that goes for anyone that has an idea, try to make it in your own country first than outsource. CHIVE FAIL!!!
Randy

China ! I hope it falls flat. Just what we need more shit made in china.
Econ

Outsourcing to China isnt a bad thing. It allows americans to have jobs a lot of times and keeps the prices of things we might want elastic. Its pretty basic economics guys. Your mom was outsourced to china

fuckyourownface

Your education was outsourced to somebody more worthy and intelligent than you, faggot.

Dan

Make it in the United States and I'm in. Why fly to China to talk to a manufacturer, when you can pick up a phone book. 3D Draw a dick and shove it in your ass if you manufacture it in China.

Dawn

YEEESSSSS!!!! SIR!!!… U TELL THEM!!! FUCK CHINA!! KEEP OUR PRODUCT….HEEERRREEE!!!! IN THE US.. U ASSHOLES!!. IM WITH WITH DAN!
