Yes, can I ask 3D printer owners to share the practical use of those prints? Ok, I see that lots of different stuff can be made, like that Eiffel tower, which would be real PIA to manufacture with mill (if that is possible at all). But that is just a toy. And then it was mentioned that different sculptures (at least that is how I understood it) can be printed out. But also that is some decorative stuff... Is there any practical use of 3D prints? Can it be useful to make something like cases for MPG pendants or something else? That is why I asked about the properties of material. If it is elastic and bouncy, then I do not see lots of practical applications... If it is hard, but very brittle, then IMHO it is troublesome too. I just would like to understand, if it is something more than just "look, how nice is this". -- Viesturs If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
