Even though it has technically been around for a few years already, 3D printing is still something of a novelty and 3D printers are still a niche product for hobbyists. It wasn't that long ago that you had to spend upwards of five figures to get a 3D printer of your own and, even then, you might have had to build it yourself. That's changing quickly and one Vancouver company is leading the charge. They?re called Tinkerine Studios and we attended their special launch party for the all new Ditto Pro 3D Printer.

The launch party commemorated two special events for Tinkerine Studios. First, they have just moved from their old facility in Langley, BC to a brand new office and facility in Vancouver, located at 341 West 6th Avenue. This provides the company with a better dedicated space in which to work, but it is also a more central location for customers to check out and pick up the 3D printers in person. Second, the party celebrates the launch of the company's third generation Ditto Pro 3D Printer.

Unlike some of the previous outings, the Ditto Pro comes fully assembled and offers a much more refined, professional look. We had the opportunity to chat with Tinkerine CEO Eugene Suyu about the company, about the Ditto Pro, and about the 3D printing movement as a whole.
