folks, yours truly wants one of these so bad I can taste it!

They now have them so that they create metallic 3D items, using metal embedded polymer feedstocks. Ditto, foodstuffs. Limited only by our imagination.

They are also conducting early tests in printing our own food from the very ions that surround us constantly. This is being viewed as a potential solution to world hunger.

Want steak, taters, corn on cob, green beans, strawberry dessert, and for me, dark semi-sweet chocolate chips?

Open the puter, select the file, load the ingredient cartridge, and voila....semi-sweet chocolate chips or fudge brownies until the world looks level.

CHOCOLATE FUDGE WITH FRESH TEXAS PAPERSHELL PECANS, anyone?

WOOOOHOOO!

I first became acquainted with these units back in '86 when my geek stockbroker had a buddy who worked in Boeing Engineering, and had one of those half-a room sized units...called it lithography. I've been bitten ever since. In fact, I've even tried to hire some "service bureau" dudes to do the programming for me since I'm too old to learn that angle, and then sell me the file. No takers so far, but it won't be long.

I know a guy who is designing gold processing equipment using a 3D printer PROGRAM. Won't be long until he's got a working model in "lexan-lite"....see through and all!
