Our next task is to deploy a Polyformer at Makerspace Kigali. I met the space manager Tinah today and learned more about this amazing community center.

I told Tinah that I would have the machine ready for the makerspace by end of December so hopefully Polyformer will be a great Christmas present. Maybe I can print it in Christmas colours? Red and White instead of White and Red....

Tinah informed me that the the makerspace currently charges members 750 RWF per gram to use the 3D printers. That is about 075 USD per gram....which is really expensive. A small 20gram print would could almost $15 USD. 

I have all of the parts to build a Polyformer, except the 3D printed pieces. Ironically, I need to use filament to make a filament making machine. In true rep-rap fashion, I hope to eventually make a Polyformer from recycled materials. Or atleast a Polyformer-Lite.
