Will 3D printers shape the future?


What is possible with 3D printers?

Recently I have been doing research on 3D printers, and I have found some from $100 to $40k!

Obviously the quality and capabilities differ, but even the cheaper ones can still be useful to a lot of people.

However the higher end ones like the Carbon M1 have far more capabilities (Which uses Continuous Liquid Interface Production -  A photochemical process that makes it possible to produce parts with excellent mechanical properties, resolution, and surface finish.)

And watching these bad boys can be very appealing :D

A 3D printer in every home..

What about when these printers become mass produced and more affordable?

Think about the types of things we will be able to make like

  • Tools
  • Kitchenware
  • Auto parts
  • Other parts
  • Toys
  • There are even some that print Food!

And basically pretty much anything else you can imagine..

Here are some websites with a variety of 3D printers and reviews.
