You mentioned that you needed help and/or advice on 3d printing for manufacturing. 

I have a lot of very specific experience here. I ran an open source project that required us to set up a 3D printer farm for manufacturing our first run of machines. I've lived in China while trying to get our project ready for mass manufacture. I have some advice for you, if you're willing to listen. 

I'd prefer to chat via video or audio, as there's so much to cover, I'd get carpal tunnel typing it all out. I'd be OK with summarizing the meeting minutes here afterwards, as to not exclude anyone else. I can meet pretty much any time regardless of time zone. 

Let me know either way. I've been following this project for quite a while (since the Slashdot AMA years ago), and I really want you guys to succeed. I missed the crowd funding round, but would still buy a few after they're fulfilled. 

Send me a direct email if you're interested in chatting.
