The Lewihe Play is the latest 3D printer to hit the market, yet it's making more of an impact that many would have expected considering just how flooded the market has become. Priced at approximately $77, it's by far the cheapest 3D printer out there. Lewihe Play is just one example of how affordable technology can get once it has been around long enough.
Originating from Alicante, Spain, the Lewihe Play 3D printer comes in the form of a kit and is geared towards people who want to customize and build their own machine. What makes it so affordable is the fact that it ships without several key components in order to allow buyers to equip it with their own preferred parts. The kit can also ship to an authorized dealer to be assembled for those who don't want to get their hands dirty.
