We use this technology to create prosthetics for surgery, it is truly game changing.

I wonder how large the powder tank can be made. I worked with Stereo Lithography equipment just before I left GM, but this is far beyond its capabilities.

Yes, but she'll have a little hoop hanging off her tail.....:clap::shocked::shemademe_smilie:

I understand the printers can be as cheap as $1500, but the scanner is far more expensive. I also heard that Jay Leno is one of the first high-profile buyers to help him with getting custom made parts when restoring his toys.

I wonder if you could use Auto-CAD to design the part then print out the part you need to replace?

You scare me... but the REALLY scary part is that I was thinking the same thing with a slightly "more seasoned" model...:2thumbs:

Excuse my complete ignorance about this stuff... pps: It does it's magic with polymers; right?? Could the type of materials used be manipulated to the point where you could actually get a "real" replacement part made out of a material that's strong enough to do the job? :shocked:

Well now I know why my post got deleted. Sure would be nice if we would be told, but I guess that is asking to much... I posted this video in this category as it was not here before, but this thread got moved from some other category...

Pretty cool printer! :2thumbs:
