Affordable 3D printing for your business
3-Dimensional printer costs are beginning to drop to a price that small businesses and schools can afford them and it's possible that in the not so distant future even homes may be able to afford them. Currently they can be bought for under $25000.
These printers are used to create plastic models of CAD images within a few hours. One printer even brags that it will be able to make a duplicate of itself minus the screws and electronics. Another website is expected to debut allowing children to create an action figure of their own design and then for about $25 have it created with this printer and shipped to the child.
