Makerbot plastic (abs)?

Post by 1885 »

I'm going to request a purchase of a Makerbot but I did not see the plastic in the materials list.
http://www.adafruit.com/products/1292#Learn

Does the Adafruit kit come with plastic?

Or do we order from Makerbot?

What do we need to get started?
Plastics and support material? (I've only used a Uprint)
