    Sinterhard was supposed to make that happen. To date I don't know whether or not any other company has stepped in to fill the now empty hole. The idea was a filament that printed like a polymer, and was then kiln fired to sinter the metal and burn out the resin.


    This exact method is already used in injection molding to produce metal components (even for industrial components), but the problem is that I don't think anyone has developed a filament which works in an FDM printer.
