Travis Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 Here's a printer that makes tangible 3d objects. This could be the coolest thing I've seen in awhile. I think it could have a lot of possibilities for scrollers too. Make your own pull knobs or embellishments for your projects. It prints plastic or stainless steel. It didn't seem like a bad price, either. However, I think you'd really have to know what you're doing to put together the 3d file.

shadylady0447 Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 Thats pretty cool, Travis. I saw something similar to this in "Jay Leno's Garage" .... he was using it to create some parts in plastic for an old car, then they made sure it fit properly in the car engine and sent it off to a tool & die person to make a real one! It was amazing because this thing scanned the original part from all sides and then made the plastic piece...you would have to watch the video to know what I'm talking about. Anyway, thanks for this video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
