Most 3D printing is not great quality... it rarely looks as good as a similar item made with a plastic mold, but as expected, this is very much starting to change.


The Form 2 3D printer from Formlabs creates incredible results. It's still also incredibly expensive, coming in around $3400... (there are significantly cheaper 3D printers on the market)... but we're talking about amazing resolution and super intricate pieces for the price of a moderately priced DSLR.


Look how intricate these are:

The Form 2 printer is super sophisticated and durable, and comes with an app to let you know the status of print jobs (since they take hours). For $5K you get the Form Wash and Form Cure devices that clean the printed parts and do the post-curing as well. Post-curing is subjecting the printed object to heat and light to really solidify the shape. Like putting pottery pieces in a kiln.


Like Blockchain technology, 3D printing is a technology that will make a huge difference in our future, as 3D printing becomes more available, easier to use and less expensive, retail chains will be adversely affected as we all make items instead of buying them.
