3D Printer: Today's project

[newsmike]

For today the plan is:

1. Buy 3D printer.

2. Print 3D printer.

3. Return 3D printer.

Genius 'Blue Sky Thinking' 🙂  Your country needs you and your innovation @newsmike🙂 

However, I was just thinking, we should all petition to bring back the Dot Matrix printers. 

Life was so much less complicated back then.  A time without mobile phones and when impressions were something you did in a comedy club! 

Oh the 'good ol days'!

Not to mention that for every advance in communications technology, the users of it seem to get incrementally more stupid.

Though most of the cheap 3d printers will print plastic (not metal) but the printer will probably have metal parts and the nozzle and electronics couldn't be printed. Plus most of them can probably only print something smaller than the printer (though maybe you could join the printed parts together).

One day maybe it could be done.

My dear Forum friends, I am saddened to realize that is necessary to state the following:

Well it could happen one day 🙂

Maybe they should combine a 3d printer and a 3d scanner so you have a simple replicator (assuming they haven't already). The 3d printers look higher quality than the 3d scanners for the same price.

To implement this plan, I can advise Dremel DigiLab Source: https://43dprint.org/best-3d-printers-under-2000 I didn't check if it could print something like a printer, but it's really powerful 😄There's a risk that you won't want to give it back.
