    In Which Country is 3D Printing The most Popular?

    I'm curious... as a percentage of a nations population, which country has the most consumer end user 3D Printers? I'm not talking about manufacturing companies. I mean people like you and I who do this more as a hobby? Have there been any studies on this? Any guess's? The United States perhaps? The UK, Canada?

    I would hazard a guess and assume the US, mainly because so many companies are based here...

    I think right now The UK is likely the leader per capita, however the US is the leader for total 3D Printers sold I bet. I also think things are really picking up in US the last 5-6 months it seems.
