Last Thursday, I spent half the day at a company producing spaceship parts and formula 1 parts using this technology. Truly amazing isn't it. I was blown away by some of the components and stories that they shown me. I want a 3D metal printer... but £500,000 is just a little too much lol

keep in mind that not only do you need the machine (which eats a lot of electrical power, because the chamber and steel powder need to be brought near critical temp), but you also need special clean room environment, the stainless steel powder is one of the unhealthiest things you can get into your lungs (carbon fiber particles are the worst). great technology, saw it last year.
