3D Printing has lost a bit of its luster lately with the Nanalyze 3D Printing Stocks motif down -33% since we first created it 6 months ago leaving us to wonder, is now the time to invest in 3D printing stocks? While 3d printing stocks have fallen out of favor, there seems to be no shortage of interest in 3D printing projects on Kickstarter, a crowdfunding platform that essentially lets you buy a product before it’s built. Sound like a shady value proposition? Many times it is, and that’s something we warned investors about before. Still, funding propositions that contain the term “3D printing” number +830. Here’s a look at the top-5 most highly funded 3D printing projects on Kickstarter so far. (#1) The M3D raised over $3.4 million in April of 2014 over the period of a single month when they only wanted to raise $50,000. This low cost 3D printer claims to be the most space-efficient, quiet, and lowest power consumption 3D printer on offer today. Printers started shipping in late 2014, and as of June 2015, they had shipped about 90% of Kickstarter pledges. As of September 2015, they had shipped 99% of all Kickstarter pledges and you can now order one of these printers for $449 with a 1-week turnaround time.
