Seems too good to be true...

and if it gets REALLY good. Holy crap. They aren't kidding when they mention political and ethical ramifications.

When and if the really impressive ones hit a fair market price, it is going to kill a lot of industries. You will be able to make so many things that home, from tools, to utensils and shoes even, that many companies will go under over it.

Why pay for a crescent wrench when you can print your own. Why pay for shoes when you can print your own. Want a new case for your phone? Print one.


That revolution has already started. Have you checked out shapeways stuff recently?



Not yet but I will look. I know you can already buy printed stuff and have stuff printed for you, but I think when they are cheap enough to be in every home is when the biggest impact of them will be seen.
