They need to improve the output first, it puts out jagged crap; nothing like the other 3D printers on the market. Spend an extra $1500 and get a professionally made 3D printer which prints good models not jagged crap.
Dude, a bow tie? Really?
Please help us rid the world of the embarassment that is the bow tie by no longer wearing them
or a dildo that’s shaped like a shotgun Lol
except for the fact that this technology is old
except for the fact that this CES was last week.

@chrisdude1001: Apart from assuming that it will be made for your sole personal use, you could also take a look in the video at 01:42 and see that the platform which moves the materialized 3D object, actually has a pretty happy face
foozeball xD
like the fact that in the old days i used to play a space shooter that sounded kinda like your nick :p
not that type of engineer anyway! lol but i ment a commericial application.

i would make a dildo

thats stupid, it exist since a long time.

Nothing new about 3D printers. been on the market for years. amazing how people think this stuff is new, what hole have you guys been in.
The big Stereoscopic 3d fluff. nothing new.. S3D gaming and eyeware has been aroung for ages, even back on the commodore64. i guess those were the things that made being a nerd so fun. everyone else was in the dark.
WOW. YEAHHHHHH!!!!!!!
Shut up! (hysterical, LOL)
will it print a max file? or obj?
My god, if one wire breaks in that, you’d be pissed..
