Currently Formlabs has a referral program that provides you, if you are a new customer, a $500 discount on their machines. Yes, this code does provide me with credit for materials and supplies, but you get a $500 credit directly on your order. It is valid only for orders from North America. And, I don’t know how long this will last, so you might want to act quickly. In fact, this was reduced to $250 a while ago, but has been returned to $500. As I understand it, there are no limits on how many times this discount code can be used, but only one $500 discount, once per new customer.
Some folks are selling their discount codes on ebay, but I would rather help you get a great laser-based SLA unit (Form 3 or Form 3L) to make incredibly precise parts. And better yet are all of the material options that Formlabs has calibrated to their equipment.
So here is the code – really – no purchase necessary from me for the coupon!
FORM3-KWWS8Q

Hello Eric,
I am writing to you from Turkey, and I wonder if your Solidoodle Presse printer still working?
My printer had a problem with its electronic card, and it doesn’t work anymore.
Do you know how I can get this electronic card?
Thanks in advance for your comment, and Merry Christmas!
Thank you, Merry Christmas to you as well! 🙂
I’m amazed that you had a Solidoodle Press still in use! I recently gave mine away to a local Makerspace as I needed to downsize the number of machines I had on hand. It was still working but needed some minor repairs. Solidoodle is long gone and original parts are nonexistent. As for the board, you could use any number of Marlin-based RAMPS boards and adapt them to the Solidoodle, though this is not “plug and play.” It certainly can be done though. This is one example that could be adapted to work: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Anet-A8-3D-Printer-Mainboard-Control-Board-Ramps1-4-Update-Version-Motherboard/233751598541 This board contains the driver chips for the stepper motors, and I believe much of the Solidoodle wiring harness would plug directly into it. You would still need to set the correct parameters in the Marlin firmware for the Solidoodle’s mechanics and so forth.
However, I think a much better solution would be to use whatever time and money you’d spend on that for a new machine. There are several available to me in the US that are a good value and would perform far better than the Solidoodle, such as the Artillery Genius ($250) or Creality Ender 3 (kits less than $200).
