You know how to print, handle a printer and produce a well printed hard copy. However, did you know that we can also print 3D objects??
Did you ever print something and it came out exactly like these?
Full colour miniature 3D face models
3D printed limited edition jewellery
3D printing is a process of making 3D solid objects from a digital model that you created on your laptop. This object is created by laying down your chosen layers of materials on the printer. PRINTER? How does it look like?

There are many types of 3D printer according to the size of object that we want to create.
This technology is used in the fields of jewellery, architecture, engineering and construction, aerospace and many more. It really contributes a lot these fields as they require a delicate machine to produce their fine product such as jewellery.
These kind pf 3D printers are usually used by large company. By the cutting-edge technology, building manner similar to an inkjet printer to create 3D objects, is on its way to becoming affordable for home use.
Hmm.. i know what i'll first do if i had this 3D printer at home. Dress!!
That's all from me, till we meet again! ;D
This is incredibly cool. I love the idea of 'printing' the 3D model and not 'producing' it. But I would say that the cost must be incredibly high too, plus the maintenance..no wonder the printers are mostly owned by big companies.
