Damn them. I wuz gonna do that.

Oh well. Always knew GE or Pratt or Garrett (cough, Honeywell..gak) would do it once DMLS was good enough.

Might point out that this looks like a low performance engine, the compressor has straight radial vanes, turbine is basic and the surfaces are not finished.

Still....it works.

Now everyone can have a jet.

Jets for the masses. What a great thing.

Small turbines aren’t efficient anyway - too much surface area per volume fluid flow, correct?
