I use this Dimension SST1200es at work: http://dimensionprinting.com/3d-printers/3d-print…
We don't scan things, we design them from scratch in 3D CAD software and print from there.
It is neat and has saved us $$$$$ from not CNC machining all our prototypes. You can have an actual part in your hands in minutes to hours.

Who is the "Real Tool"?

Ok this isn't new, also they kinda tricked u in to believing that they scanned it and printed it, the wrench in the start is very different from the one in the end… look closely also look at the bottom area…
Tom

So if you lose a tool in space you can print out another one? Really there is no other applications for this? Honestly the possibilities are endless. You go shopping on the internet buy a schematic and print it on your home 3d printer. Instantly. EPIC.

Don't carry the tools and gear at all. Just the copier and receiver. Then produce just what you need. Hmm ?? Could it do oxygen??

How did it know the shape of internal components if they scanned it with a laser?
Blah

Fucking magnates. How do they work?
Kevin

good job chive.. this is OLD as shit.. did you look at the date before you took it from youtube?

Every high tech corporation has 3d printers that do 10+ different materiels in the same print job by now

Can it make KCCO shirts?

Already done. Maker bot industries has made a maker bot (3d printer) that replicated itself.

what the fuck

it wont fuckin load
Ricco

The part I don't get is how it can reproduce tthe inside parts that would make something move as the threads inside the wrenck.

[...] but giving a physical gift creates a stronger connection in my mind. Who knows, maybe once this 3-d printing takes off we will be able to see a whole new level of brand connection. Share [...]

Why did the printed wrench have a D-ring on the end of the handle instead of the molded hole like the original?

Still waiting for the day when I can torrent one of the scans for a car and print it out. Free Lambo anyone?
