# Portabee: Portable 3D Printer

May 29, 2012

[Portabee](http://romscraj.com/carttoo/index.php?route=product/product&path=64&product_id=122) is the latest 3D printer to hit the ever growing market of desktop 3D printers.  This one is a little different in that it is very small and portable, designed to fold down into a laptop bag.  Currently taking pre-orders for the unassembled kit for only $480 they also plan to offer an assembled, tested version in the future.

The Portabee has a build area of 120x120x120mm, uses 3mm PLA and ABS filament with a 0.5mm extruder nozzle and is available in 7 color options.
