3D Printers Now Seem Cheap

[manoaction]

Is anybody using these? For less than $2,000, I feel like I should be able to take over the world with a magical brewing robot or something.

Now they just need one that makes stuff out of stainless instead of plastic.

They certainly are. My buddy just purchased a CNC machine that has a 3d printer attachment. Can't wait to start making some sweet brewing tools.

I know it's just ABS, but I would think if you wrapped it with carbon fiber and coating of epoxy, you could make some pretty tough custom equipment.
