3D printers seem to be breaking new ground every few months or so. Post awesomeness of 3D printing here.
PHOTOS: This Groundbreaking 3D Printer Built 10 Homes in 24 Hours
From Oreos to body parts, 3D printers have been cranking out some pretty unbelievable stuff lately.
But in Shanghai, WinSun Decoration Design Engineering Co. has been using a monstrous printing device to build homes at a breakneck pace — 10 homes in 24 hours.
Measuring out at roughly 105 feet long, 33 feet wide, and 21 feet tall, this clearly isn’t your average retail printer.
Unlike most 3D printers, this printing giant is fed with cement rather than plastic, making it especially well-suited for home construction.
The best part is the houses are super cheap to make and they’re made almost entirely of construction and other industrial waste.

Actually a continuous concrete casting machine controlled by a computer.
Pushing the definition of 3D printing a tad, no?

All CNC machines to be given the 'new cool' as 3d or 2.5d printers. My tin of bake beans label printed on a 2.5d printer? Meet the old boss, same as the new boss.

That would be fucking great. We could print out an 18th century and send Seth back into it. He could live out his dream of being a minuteman to his heart's content.
