Sli3DR (pronounced Slider) is a new DIY open source 3d printer developed by famous RichRap. It has unique moment mechanics configuration that uses Spectra line.

You can find out more about this mechanism on RichRap's blog.
Update: one of the commentators claims it that the mechanism is similar to the movement of Stratasys Fortus machines. Since I'm not familiar with them I can not confirm it ... hopefully this mechanism will be identified and it's origins clarified ...
