    print me a car motherfuckers

    @Holyshiite911 <3 Singularity

  • Holyshiite911:

    @Coodude26 that guy doesn’t know his shit stereolithography / laser sintering technologies can already print transistors and circuits, as well as biosensors and ready to use drones, and if he thinks that a self replicating 3d printer is not coming within the next decade then he hasn’t heard of the singularity.

  • SpencerDieal:

    How much do these cost?

  • TheTechAdmin:

    @kareldezoonvanbennie what came first, the 3D print or the 3D printer? lol!

  • skater91411:

    @HalfPricePrototypes Although virtually any CNC and/or additive CNC is able to reproduce itself, you would just have to attach the circuits, wires ,motors etc.

  • Coodude26:

    @HalfPricePrototypes Who says it ‘has’ to print screws? They’re not the only kind of fastener around. Who says that printing conductive substances isn’t only a couple of years away? granted, this thing will never be able to print out itself because its build platform would have to be bigger than itself, but a machine that can prit out all its own parts is for all intensive purposes self-replicating.

  • HalfPricePrototypes:

    @kareldezoonvanbennie You can’t print you own 3d printer. Contrary to whatever nonsense Rep Rap or MakerBot claim. No single 3d printer is going to make metal screws, plastic parts, wires, and then assemble itself. This is not the Matrix.

  • HalfPricePrototypes:

    Awesome resolution. Poor heat resistance :( Especially in Florida. Build times are a nightmare, but that’s the trade off for high-res. It builds 20x more layers than an FDM. Check out Half Price Prototypes for instant quotes for Z Corp if shopping around.

  • sphinxrising58:

    They had this tech for like 20 years now, although, granted, today’s version is much better.

  • C3Z4rtv:

    This somehow reminds me of an episode of “The Fairly Odd Parents” where Timmy chooses something from a catalog, scans it, and prints it out. :)

  • Junije1:

    tea, hot, earl gray XD

  • NexIuguolo:

    Check some of the nanotech vids– you may be able to build diamonds at home if your printer isn’t out of carbon atoms.

  • LuciusMare:

    Someone made reprap print with soldering iron,o’course it was not very good in quality,but still!

  • garagecrap:

    It’s only a 1st step before they’ll be able to pront electronics etc. han you buy a printer and print out a working ipod.

  • dean10007:

    While it wouldn’t print electronics, you can certainly make cases, and other mechanical components to house the electronics, making the manufacture of further printers that much easier.

  • media1981:

    It doesn’t print mechanics DUH~!

  • Darakon:

    Buy a 3d printer, and print 3d printers to save cash. I’m a GENIUS!

  • adisharr:

    The RepRaps results are extremely course at this point in time. It’s fun to play around with but it has very limited potential in materials and accuracy.

  • mclewismc:

    awsume

  • djnoreg:

    LOL this exist now!

  • m0nac0:

    but which is the material used?

  • virusuriv:

    Aqui un atasco de papel… quiero decir, composite puede ser jodido xD y lo que es peor muy caro!!! 1€ o 2€ por pulgada cúbica =(

  • Ba3dadBoy:

    Haha. The RepRap 3d printer actually does that. Its open source and you’re encouraged to print 2 printers when you first get the machine and sell them at cost price

  • Tinnesa:

    Cool still :O
