Jonathan Brand, an artist living in New York started 3D printing about 3 years ago and shortly after decided to print his own motorcycle. What originally interested him in Ultimaker at the time about 2 years ago was the printers fast printing ability to produce prints in large volumes as well as the free opensource software, this allowed him to design and print his own customized parts. To maintain the translucent effect each part is only about 1mm thick and after 18 roles of PLA plastic the motorcycle finally weighs in at 18kg.
