The first key to thinking about 3-D printers is this: Do not think printer. Think magic box that creates any object you can imagine.
“3-D Printing Is (Kind Of) A Big Deal” via NPR
When you stop thinking in terms of how a particular innovation is analogous to something you know of in the present, the easier it is to imagine and create wildly new applications for the future. That is where we are with 3-D printing and we have not even touched the surface of how revolutionary the technology can be. Like the article states, “it democratizes who gets to be in the manufacturing business.”
