Long Beach, California is a city known for its sunshine, its health- and eco-aware citizens, its port, and its shipping and aerospace-based economy. And it is also increasingly gaining a reputation as a city on the cutting edge of 3D printing technology, as its new and intricately designed 3D printed key to the city shows. The project to design a 3D printed key took about a year, but the effort was worth it. The final product, which features a sun with nine rays representing the city's nine districts and local landmarks, evokes both the city's past and its bright future.
