Definitely the Polyflex - this bendable malleable material would be excellent for prosthetic joint-inner linings with robotics and machines with movable parts - biomechanical engineering - this...
The Magnetic iron could easily be printed into assemble-able Maglev tracks - they could be used to create levitation tracks like maglev trains, but smaller, say, for camera-paths or the movement of...
Customized action figures, of course!
The gift of becoming your own as-you-go manufacturing plant and creating need goods as the demand arises. It's a beautiful technology.
I would have Myself, because I am my own character. My character would be printed out of silicon material that mimics the feel of human flesh, like the fleshlight superskin material. This 6" 3D print...
I think in 10 years it will be possible (POSSIBLE) to 3D print bio-organism organizations/root systems/algae networks that will be harnessed to transmit light and energy organically, along a natural...
Portability, Easy to use (intuitive), Simplicity, versatile, fast, accurate, precise.

If I could give a 3D printer to anyone in the world, I would give one to someone who already has the know-how, the resources and materials, to use them to print organs, skin grafts, bio-mechanical...
What a sweet app!
It looks beautiful, but the cost may be a smidge too high for the size capabilities.. however the wifi makes up for that.. for now.. I still want it!
OBVIOUSLY there needs to be a lot of hyper-realistic figurines made of REN AND STIMPY.
I've said this before because it's something I don't seem to be seeing, but there needs to be a filament that prints as a foam-like material such as temper-pedic mattresses. A memory-foam like...

This article really struck me, for I feel we're still obviously not at the point where this technology is widely known in the school systems....
Definitely the skeletons/framing for bio-mechanical robotics. If there is a material option for strong metals, this would be fantastic for developing structures like the skeletal frames for robots...
I haven't seen anyone printing with cushioning foam, or a material similar to tempur-pedic mattresses or memory-foam. I think there's an untapped market for life-sized pillow-selfie prints. If...
What is the most interesting thing you have seen done with a 3D printer or 3D printing technology?
Project-Poppy really blew my mind! It's an open-source robotics collective that develops 3D...
