    Taiwan Veterinarians 3D Print Prosthetics for 1/30th the Cost

    3D printing of animal prostheses isn't just a national phenomenon. In fact it is going on all of the world, with a recent case coming from a veterinarian university in Taiwan. They have been using desktop 3D printers to create prosthetic legs for animals in need. Most fascinating is the fact that they've been doing this for just 1/30th of the cost of traditional techniques. Read and see more at: http://3dprint.com/84124/3d-printing-animal-legs/

    It's true! 3D printing prosthetics for humans and for animals is becoming more accessible and popular every day. Some of the greatest 3D printing stories include those of 3D printed prosthetics: https://mylocal3dprinting.com/blog/t...ories-of-2015/

    I think 3D printing holds a lot of potential for the medical industry in the future. It's the easiest and most affordable way to create a customizable prosthetic for any situation.
