By definition, it is a prototype.
Due it no profit being made, it makes it reasonable to expect end users to simply eat the cost and not have a somewhat functioning product, regardless of hiding behind the vail of “open source”?
Like I told Bar in a private message, rather than allowing buyers to “do their own research” it’d be best I explicitly say: “Maslow is a work in progress. Do not expect a working machine even after following all instructions we provide. Maslow is a prototype of a possible working machine and should not be expected to fully functional at the end. You are an alpha tester and should expect failure.” In this manner it’s crystal clear.
I’m aware of both costs and principles of building cnc machines, you can look up my YouTube: CompactCo, I’ve shared this with bar as well.
It’s disrespectful to believe I didn’t have any for this product, projection it seems. Respect was shown with investing in the product, investing time, speaking with Bar privately on bettering the machine, trying the avenues published in the forums. At what point does it become disrespectful to the end user?

Sorry if I sounded harsh. I didn’t intend it that way. Texting seldom reflects the intended tone. Especially when it’s not my native language. “Respect” wasn’t the word I meant to use on my part. I can see that makes the post even more aggressive. I meant appreciation, so I’m sorry for that.
I saw your Kickstarter btw. I would love a machine like that! So many small parts one could make way better than with a 3D printer!

No need to apologize. I didn’t take it as an insult or personal attack.
Thank you for taking the time to look at my work. As you can see it was possibly too highly priced. I also did zero marketing or video publishing due to a massive workload in my day job.
My criticism for the product comes from a passion of not only design but manufacturing. It really makes the small community of passionate designers in fabrication look like, frankly, like jokes; selling products that are simply not ready for retail buyers.
