6 Wheeler made from a 3D printer

3d printing technology is amazing. Scientists printed out a beating heart from a machine filled with cells. I found the 3d model from this quite awhile ago; it seems pretty simple to do and if anyone wants to attempt it I have a bit of a model selection.

Funny. I've been wondering if I could use a 3-D printing shop to replicated a green poly nose for my current project. I wonder if these machines could make stuff using HDPE.

George, I just remembered that Evil8x8 made a mold for an Attex nose (Chief/Thunderchief style).

Well they are building full size houses with a massive 3D printer in China. Likewise, USC in California in is doing the same thing in a few hours. Suppose to revolutionize the housing industry. On site 3D building with plastic concrete on a massive scale.

Isn't the patent up on the metal 3D printers this year ? That should make firearm enforcement interesting over here, will they ban the printers There's already been a couple of cases of folk printing plastic firearms that worked, when the metal printers come down in price the police will have no control at all over guns.

I couldn't agree more!

It would be better as an Attex, but it's still cool.

That is very cool. It would be better as an Attex, but it's still cool.

Here's a cool project that a guy did with his 3D printer......it's an Amphicat toy and it looks pretty accurate compared to the real AATV, but this obviously being a scaled down version.
