The Mooz 3D Printer can Print, Engrave, and Carve Wood!

A printer that has recently been making a lot of noise in the 3D printing world is the MOOZ. The MOOZ is a 3D printer currently on Kickstarter that isn’t just a 3D printer. It’s a 3-in-1, 3D printer, laser engraver, and CNC carver. It achieves this through multiple interchangeable heads which each perform these different jobs. The MOOZ can currently be pre-ordered on Kickstarter starting at $239, though each of the other 2 features cost an extra $79 each.

Features of each MOOZ printer

As well as being a 3-in-1 there are also 3 types of MOOZ available; the MOOZ-1, MOOZ-2, and MOOZ-3. Though even the MOOZ-1 (the cheapest) includes the laser engraving and CNC carving, the highest-end model, the MOOZ-3, includes extras such as faster printing and colour mixing.

A worry may be perhaps that the MOOZ is attempting to do too many things to be the best at any one of them. However, according to their Kickstarter page and website, the printer can perform all of these tasks very well. We will analyse each area in the following paragraphs.
