we had one of those "printers" in our ME lab in college. Pretty cool piece of equipment. Don't know if they had the scanning/modeling equipment though.
Its neat stuff for sure!

WOW!
For less than 3000!
Wonder how much the Dimension machine costs..
X2, pretty cool little piece of technology right there...
Saw that a few weeks ago, pretty sweet!
The scanner and software are probably pocket change compared to the Dimension modeling machine..
X2, those guys make it look easier than it is.
WOW! Absolutely amazing, no matter the cost.
To "print" a working tool (the wrench) or complex machine (the engine) without anything being cut or molded separately is insane!

They are in the process of using a printer and cells (as the ink), to make a human heart. This would open a whole new world!!!
wasn't there already a man-made heart used in a patient? Think it might have even been done in KY. IIRC, he is no longer with us. Prolonged his tenure a few more years though IIRC.
I'll see if I can dig it up.
Here's a link: Artificial Heart Transplant No. 2 As you can see, this article is from 2001. I'll try to see how long ol' dude survived.
Made it 151 days and died of unrelated causes. Artificial Heart Recipient Dies
