    Finally !
    This is great for the mechanical revolution, making complex machinery.
    I'm kind of offended by those figures, I got nothing against them, but, to see them as the product of such advanced technology is blasphemy to me.
    Good news anyway

    My dad said he saw a metal ion deposition printer a decade ago at Lawrence Livermore Labs. Never heard what happened to that printer.

    I think this is laser sintering, and not the more advanced electron beam sintering. The voids left by the process of laser sintering here are filled with bronze, which creates a solid material. You would probably not want to create any load-bearing parts with this.

    I believe the printer is from ExOne. They can print all sorts of cool things in all sorts of metals. It's a really cool process that is being used in all sorts of ways.

    Wow this is pretty impressive.
    If RepRap cold incorporate this then it'd be able to build alot more of itself.
    Admittedly the price is a tad high (I suppose it's reasonable for a new method) cos we pay like £10 for 10cm high figurines at our uni. Having them in steel would be pretty awesome though.

    @MMBman7171: It's done in layers, alternating powdered steel and a binding material until the entire object is built up.

    @MMBman7171: Yeah! You know what I think would be great? If at the end of every story, there was a link using some kind of Hypertext Transfer Protocol to lead you to something like an original story.
    I wonder if such a thing is possible.

    @MMBman7171: It's called electron beam sintering, they've been doing it for a while now. No binding agent is required, they can actually FAA certify parts for flight with this method.

    I saw "cupcake" and "maker" and "bot".

    Ginger, you let me down again. I was hoping to see a robot that makes cupcakes. Don't tease me like that. I've got a nice stack of bricks in my office that I was saving for my IT guy's head but if you continue to tease me with promises of dessert-droids, I will happily lob one at you.

    I've always thought that print-on-demand was promising technology, but seeing where ebook readers are compared to PoD, I'd have to say that by the time that the economy of PoD makes it viable, ebook readers will have likely made them obsolete.

    So, if we print out that Nigerian scam email on a sheet of paper, does this mean we can catch that asshole?


    Ignoring the fact that every person in the universe talks about going "paperless", it is great that this can be done.
