Very interesting clip
With that technology they can make anything

It would be fun to play with one of those (and a 3D scanner, and a good CAD program). Home versions are down below $2,000. That is almost to the point where a club or a small shop could afford to get one to share.

A very nice piece of kit, can see that becoming very popular

[norman lovie]

got one of these toys at work
We were doing a new flow spool a few weeks back - 40T of metal in the real world, you come up with the concept - make a drw and - hayho a 3D model is on your desk the next day - it''s very good for stimulating the progress of a design
I wish I could get access to it for homers but alas

I believe there are companies on the Internet that will print things for a very reasonable fee.
