Protopasta: 3D Printer filament for makers, by makers - The Protopasta brand was born from a unique intersection of passion for making, access to technology, and growing online communities. With a mission to make 3D Printing more interesting and useful, through improved access to unique materials. Born on Kickstarter, we owe our success to the many communities of makers and 3D Printing enthusiast from around the world who believe in what we we are doing. Little known fact, all of our test prints for our first crowdfunding were made on a 1970s end mill retrofitted with numerical control and an E3D hot end. We mixed materials on a hot plate and did small test extrusions using our lathe. Yup, we've added some printers and purpose-built machinery since then, but doesn't get much more maker than that!!!
