    Give credit where credit is due: Sovol donates (pays?) $2 per sold 3d-printer to the voron project and publishes their design as open source.

        He is one of the Voron team members. As to the specifics of whether they declined it or if there’s some agreement I’m not sure.

        They did not outright declined it. They policy is not to engage wt commercial entities. Therefore, there is no contract or agreement of any kind. Nevertheless, Solvo may just voluntary donate to the project, for the PR.

          Yeah the further I got into his video, he seemed to relent a little, saying he didn’t know what they (Sovol) were doing, but they (Voron team) refuse to work with / endorse anyone in a commercial kind of way. His initial statement early in that video was that they outright declined it though. Guess that’s the problem with unedited livestreams
