I can't wait until we are printing cars instead of paper. I'll bet Adobe is already working on an application for that. Maybe Quark too. :laugh:

I hope it isn't crash prone  :cheesy:

It's pretty neat, been watching this tech since it was low res, slow and limited to 1 material. The other month I saw them "print" a working crecent wrench in 1 pass. Including the moving parts. And it worked! This is the beginning of of sci-fi style "synthesizer" we'll have in our inter-galactic cruisers!
Print me a chicken pot pie!

What about printing a boyfriend or girlfriend?

I could design them just the way I like.

The women were hot, dutiful, and obedient. It could work.

Quark is working on a digital buggy whip. So far, results are positive.

Earendil has already suggest something like that in the other thread. Well, I posted about printing up a super model and he mentioned one that can't talk. Or something like that. It was a hoot.

Except for the 933 character activation code. :angry:

I'd print out a 6-foot print of Bill Hicks but unlike you I would want him to talk.

Yes but it's "Art" not an internal combustion engine. Gas explosions and paper don't mix well.  The "Printer" car is a useable electric.

Lots-O-Work and really cool, though
