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
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: 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.
@Rosa Golijan: No, I respect your creative talents doing something I can't do, namely, write. So I will not just lash out at you. mmbman, who can not RTFA, however, will receive my fury.
The Anti-Christ has better taste than this. He'd have a tray of Broodwiches on the table, some infernal dips made out of onions and cream beaten with the skulls of tortured farmers, and deviled eggs. The cradle would be woven with the hair of a million Nazis, over the bones of murdered orphans, and a lead rattle made in China.
But what horrible child could emerge from this kind of baby gear?
