Sorry I haven't chimed in before, but thank you Andrew for linking to my
store. I also have my blog where I decided to explore this topic in depth.
I decided to put my thoughts on this topic there because they were running
a bit long here:
http://joesmakerbot.blogspot.com/2012/09/making-money-with-makerbot.html
This post ended up being a bit more personal than I meant to. I'll try it
again in a bit and title that one "how you can make money with a makerbot."
The short version is it's not difficult to make some money, but making the
sort of money that will allow you to run a business... that's something
else. I'm not quite ready to write that post yet since I haven't really
gotten there yet.
