If there really is a patent filed on this... My guess is it is valid. The reason is this: Much of the 3D-Printer work is happening on the internet and there is discussion on every topic in the 3D-Printer forums. If this patent got filed, the process to invalidate it would involve finding prior art. If you find a post in some forum talking about smoothing ABS with acetone vapor prior to when they filed the patent, it is over. My guess is they wouldn't spend the money to pursue a patent unless they really were first.
It will be an interesting one to watch!Last edited by Roxy; 05-02-2014 at 03:11 PM.
