You need internet but we have options for customers that need airgap or high security

Excited to launch DM Fiber today ️ Continuous carbon fiber AFP tapes. Twice as strong as steel at 1/5 the weight. 2500 MPa Tensile strength and 160GPa Modulus. Huge 20L print envelope. Finally a printer able to produce continuous composite reinforcement or preforms with less than 1% porosity and up to 60% fiber loading . The power of a multimillion dollar composite AFP system is now available in your desktop!

Have you actually worked with him? I have for many years and he has been one of the most founder friendly and dedicated people I've ever met!

Excluding Jason is perplexing to me. For context I've started 6 companies, one went public and was a unicorn. I've worked with Jason as an angel in my companies and I've been on a board with him. Jason has been an awesome throughout several years of doing business with him. I can't envision a scenario where he wouldn't be founder friendly and I'd love to have him as an investor in any future project I pursue. Any first time founder would be lucky to work with Jason.

I'm a tech entrepreneur and MIT grad who is an avid pilot and type rated on single pilot jets. I've personally visited John in Montana. This project is doing groundbreaking aerodynamic work in a garage. It's what America is all about. The science is sound and based on real designs and concepts that have been studied at places like NASA but never implemented due to the risk averse hyper conservative nature of incremental airframe design and certification barriers to entry inherent to the aviation industry. This project is worth backing. John has the goods.
