Epic!!Never thought 3-D printing would advance so much!

Printing!!!!!!! did not understand....

Hey pankaj, google 3D-printing.

How do they put things inside it? If it is completely printed, all materials inside it would have to be printed up as well..

They are printed.(I guess)

holy cow , do some body knows the logic.

Check this out. Mind boggling!

Wonder how it works with metal...

I guess 3D printing will usher in a new era of manufacturing technology. CNC machining centers will be things of the past.

It says "nylon laser sintering". Sintering is a process of fusing powders - usually metal - under heat and pressure. Sintered bronze bearings are made with this method. It results in microscopic pores which retain the lubricant.

Thanks for the answer Sushil sir. Very interesting technology. Seems too simple. Apart from costs, what are the other hurdles in the implementation of this? Probably materials?

Hey, have you guys heard about the open source, self replictiong, DIY 3D printer ReRap 

Wow

Had no idea it existed.

hi guys,
fantastic advancement in techo stuff............BUT what about the impact on environment and employment.??
so you package  say, school math instrument........some thing that is already plastic, but can now be made faster and cheaper AT THE SCHOOL   ,.......... where's your job now 
I think some times we run away with our enthusiasm,

too deep

don

this is cool

now the LHS will have printers and we can them for the plain printout
