I’m very excited about these new perks, thank you

Is the Buildtak discount only for EU? I don’t see that one on my perks page. I LOVE Buildtak! I’ve been using that stuff for over a year.

This is really, really cool. Thanks a lot guys

Hey @ it’s the only Perk that is limited to Ultimaker 2’s as we’re testing the demand for it before extending to other printers. The reason for this is that we made a custom 3D Hubs version together with /Buildtag.

Brian · 2015-05-13T21:34:38.000Z

I think we’ll ship them from BuildTak’s office in the US, let me double check to be sure!

Brian · 2015-05-13T21:36:04.000Z

You’re welcome!

This is so awesome.

Thanks for negotiating these discounts, Filemon. I’m sure they’ll come in very useful for those hubs in London who are classified as “Professionals”. What?? There aren’t ANY?? Even the Mayor’s hub is only classified as “Intermediate”?! In 3DHubs’ 3rd largest city?? Hmmm. Maybe it’s worth re-thinking the classification boundaries.

Brian · 2015-05-14T01:29:40.000Z

Hey @Krumbacher, you have to give it time with intermediate level you already score a solid 20% discount so I think you’ll be fine!

imagine3dps · 2015-05-14T01:54:38.000Z

I see. I’m a big fan of the stuff. If you get around to making a Replicator 2 version, sign me up!

imagine3dps · 2015-05-14T01:58:30.000Z

Also, it’s too bad I can’t use the Colorfabb discount at one of their US Distributors (my favorite is PrintedSolid.com). If I have to order from the EU, the shipping outweighs the discount! So sad…

Didier_2 · 2015-05-14T06:21:36.000Z

Oh and you mentionned they are only for Ultimaker 2, is it also for the Go? (i would be interested for the Go not for the UM2)

Mihyaerusan · 2015-05-14T09:11:06.000Z

Currently using the 165mm x 165mm (6.5" x 6.5") BuildTak board with PLA and have to say it’s one of the best things to print on. But be careful if you’re using it - you have to adjust your height REALLY exactly. If the extruder hits the plate just once you can throw it away.

Filemon · 2015-05-14T15:38:08.000Z

“Work hard and prosper” ;p

Pot8oSH3D · 2015-05-14T17:12:54.000Z

I’ll give you the opportunity to prove that to me next week

middelweerd · 2015-05-16T13:24:26.000Z

First of all, this is just great!

Keep up the good work 3DHubs!

I can’t seem to find the BuildTak perk on the Perks tab of my dashboard. Any news on that?

Filemon · 2015-05-17T16:48:55.000Z

Buildtak for now is only limited Ultimaker 2 owners (beta). I forgot to add and will edit the post right now. Hope that clarifies

Pot8oSH3D · 2015-05-30T07:46:22.000Z

You’re right @Bernard. I’ve only given it nearly 2 years!

Hartatak62 · 2015-09-29T15:10:15.000Z

Not sure if this has been addressed in the past 5 months since this announcement, but I also use BuildTak, but don’t have an Ultimaker, nor do I live in the UK. I’d absolutely love a discount, as I seem to go through sheets of the stuff a bit quicker than I should. I have a Lulzbot Taz 5 (300mm x 300mm bed) and live in the United States. Please extend this discount to other printers!
