Hong Kong Students Set Record for Largest 3D Printed Sculpture Display

For over a century, Hong Kong was ruled by Britain, until in 1997 the island was finally returned to China. This month, the 20th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to Chinese rule was celebrated, and a Guinness World Record was set in the process. As part of the anniversary celebration, a competition was held asking local students to reproduce buildings from the island's waterfront. 1,236 students from 123 secondary schools participated in the competition, resulting in 236 entries. The top four entries received awards at an unveiling on Sunday. All together, the 3D printed waterfront is 35 square meters and consists of 1,214 3D printed items, earning it the Guinness World Record for largest 3D printed sculpture display.
