“The cost of manufacturing will be shifted to the consumer”

When has the cost of manufacturing not rested on the consumer?

That’s not a 3D hamburger. Make God’s substances for less with 3D and we will talk about it

We are at the same point in time when they thought they could make GOLD for less. They never did.

If you can imagine it, it’ll probably be here in the next 10-20 years. I just saw a new space engine that gets us to Mars in about a month.

3D printed meat could soon be cheap and tasty enough to win you over

Yeah. Ain’t it fabulous?!

Maybe there’s hope.

Leave all the Hillary’s, Barack’s, and every other form of useless eaters who feel they should rule over us behind and work with the fantastic technologists who brought us this!

Actually, the real benefit is being able to print a replacement part for those little plastic knobs, gears, levers, and doohickies that break all the time around the house.

One of my employees has a half-a-dozen printers and a scanner and we take broken pieces to him all the time, which he gladly creates stronger copies of. Works a lot better than superglue.

The price will come down - as with all tech - and it’ll be a normal appliance someday.

My son has a high end 3D printer, and he prints all kinds of things around the house. He’s working on an extruder now, to make his own media...
