Andreas Bastian developed this very interesting 3d printer with continuous build belt platform. Since it is a movable belt you could, in theory, print continuous or infinitely big objects. Yes, it is a DIY project and it is in development so the builds are rough but the concept is innovative.
The name "Lum" is a version of the word "loom" as the developer is known for his work in textile-like 3d printed structures.
Here is Lum printing its own print bed! First part of a print platform belt is made on different 3d printer and then finished on Lum.

Build guide can be found at for a lower part of it, further build guides will follow:
