And then prints the next layer to print this wrench is about 500 layers and about 6hrs
And cost about £200

Post by: loz on August 05, 2011, 01:26:23 AM: Bargain! especially now the printer has been reduced in price to $59,999K

I am totally enthralled by this technology, watched many different companies videos. At first I thought it was a wind up.

Can it print £50 notes:D[:o)]
