I hate being the guy to bitch about these things,

By that solid supplier and proven design you mean the Replicape right?

@Elias_Bakken
Is next version replicape still based on DRV8825 stepper driver?

@Clarence_Lee ​ yes

Interrestingly they are now loosing backers faster than they are gaining them : http://www.kicktraq.com/projects/1177488680/bbp-making-your-3d-printer-faster/#chart-daily
I guess some people do find not answering questions suspicious …

@Arthur_Wolf I jumped ship from my $150 pledge, when I saw the new price of the Replicape.

Sorry, was at MRRF, replicape, the smoothieboard from uberclock, azteeg x5 from panucatt, ramps or Rambo from ultimachine, all good choices.
