Cool 3d printer concept some of the comments in the article seam kinda uneducated  to say the least but I dont see how this could be called anything but an idex printer at best and definitely not a tool changer? Expected more accuracy from hackaday but maybe I'm way off base? Would love to hear the forms/groups thoughts.

Interesting. Now - although main article title claims "Toolchanger" - the Title/Link to video shows it as 'Bed Changer' - Dual Polar 3D Printer with IDEX. Will admit - that makes more sense as a Reference to this CRAZY Creation. I must say - and Andy will probably agree - Mechanics on printer are Overly complicated. I watched video - and OUCH the whole circular bed and gears - a LOT of Mass for movement. TOTALLY INEFFICIENT for something that wants to print from 2 Nozzles! 

This Tech Concept is a SERIOUS Hard Pass!!!
