As we wind down the year, 3D Printing has been one of the biggest tech trends in the last 12 months. We have seen so many interesting items 3D Printed since January. I thought I would make a post with some of the coolest things that we have seen printed in the last year.

#1 - 3D Printed Prosthetic Nose
This nose was printed with a starch substance and is being used by several people with facial deformities.


#2 - 3D Printed Metal Gun
Solid Concepts printed out this metal gun back in November. They are now selling these guns in limited quantity at a price of $11,900.


#3 - 3D Printed Circuit Board
A working circuit board that was 3D Printed in November of this year.


#4 The 3D Printed Robot
All the main parts of this robot can be made on your 3D Printer


#5 Tiny 3D Printed metal parts

These parts, printed by Microprint are extremely tiny. The printer used, can print at 5 micrometers per deposit, meaning 5 millionths of a meter.


#6 3D Printed Gran Torino Body
Maybe not as classy as the original body, but certainly a lot more intricate.


#7 - 3D Printed Custom Prosthetic Leg
Made by Bespoke, which has since been acquired by 3D Systems. This is just one of the dozens of 3d printed prosthetic legs we have seen this year.


#8 - 3D Printed Human Ear
This is the real deal. An ear 3D Printed with human ear cells. This was created at the beginning of the year by researchers at Cornell University.


#9 - 3D Printed Prosthetic Thumb
This thumb was 3D Printed by a man who didn't want to pay $5k for a prosthetic. Instead he spent $20 on materials and printed it himself.


#10 - 3D Printed Hand
This kid got national attention when his father 3D Printed him a hand, saving him thousands of dollars in the process:
