Topolabs Aims to Improve The Way FDM 3D Printers Print - Improved tooling paths..?
So it looks like a company named Topolabs has come up with a revolutionary new method of printing objects on FDM 3D Printers. It's quite amazing, and makes so much sense really. Instead of printing only utilizing the X & Y Axes (except when changing layers), they utilize all the axes at the same time.

Improved tooling paths... at last ?
OK, so I studied engineering and I thought preparing moulding tools for the school ball's give_away ashtrays was cool.
I guess I had been waiting for that stuff to materialize from the beginning and I was oddly wondering if some arcane reason somhow made it impossible...
Topologcal tool paths. Thank you. Please don't sell your licenses / cloud something too expensive.
