Mass availability of 3D printing, if it turns out to be as impactful as it is presented to be, it will be revolutionary to the world as we know it and in particular the manufacturing industry.

I still can't get over printing kidneys & guns

mind = blown

Kidneys and guns would be the last thing on my mind if I got hold of a 3D printer

what do you have in mind? btw printers cost only a couple of 100 £'s

Less than a thousand quid?? that can't be true

I would print cars saxib, although assembling the car would require a specialist and lots of time it would still be worth it in the end.

Nicca print your own Lambo!

Yep, below £1k but with very limited capacity. You need industrial scale operations if you want to make real $$$'s and having such a set up would cost hundreds of £1000's.

But to print cars you would need to print most part individually (i think) and it'd need to be efficient, quick and cost effective

Interesting.
My friend is a super geek, he introduced me to 3D printing last summer. How did you find out about this?

No more will poor and technologically underdevelop countries be beholden to other countries for manufactured goods
