I've read that 3D Printing is going to be a bigger tech boom than the internet was. Seems like every week I see some new idea or concept someone is working on that is something you wouldn't have ever thought they could do.

I've seen everything from medical uses where they replaced a women jaw bone with a 3d printed replacement to a guy that designed and created his own replacement heart valve.. I've seen one of the major universities working on a system that prints concrete structures, to potentially build homes. Then a concept of using robot 3d printers to use moon dust to create the basic structure for a moon base.

There are guys trying to create a working gun and just today I watched a video from the Ted Talks about a group that is trying to 3d print leather & actual beef that would replace the need for farm raised cattle.

Looks like the sky is the limit with this stuff, assuming they can actually keep advancing the technology which is mainly just limited to speed and materials. Anyone else following this shit?

Seems like it's 1990 again in relation to the possibilities of being on the ground floor with the internet.
