Not pre-painted, pre-printed!
« on: October 25, 2012, 01:29:51 AM »
It's not ready for 28mm in quality or price, yet. But given the relentless march of technology, it's really just a matter of time ...

WIN!  :D

I just read an article yesterday about some chefs trying out 3D printed food! I'm saying it again; before long, we won't have any more kitchens or fridges, or parcel services for that matter, but just a 3D- or digital printer in the house, plus a tank of base materials...

Brave new world man...

I remain sceptical. I predict 3D printing is going o be a passing fad, just like laser cutting and the Internet.
