    3D Printer

    Just had to share this video. This is no longer science fiction. Incredible.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Coke in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!".

    Hehe, all through that vid I was thinking how long before someone does a 3D copy of their backside and/or genitals? Technology may move on but some things never change.

      Symptoms:- Constant jams on 3D copier

      Cause:- Found half a jammed penis in exit area.

      Action:- Removed penis, customer insisted that "No one who works here would put their penis in the copier"

        It'd be easy finding the smegger who jammed it.
        It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

        Hit it.

          too large to fit out the exit?!?!?! LOL

          Saw this about 6 months ago. It is simply amazing how they produce these products.

            Well if you watched the video about this they don't put there butt or any item in the machine. It is scaned to a computer and the you hit the print button. Cool stuff going on .

              A customer showed that to me a few weeks ago, I was going to share but thought it had been posted already.Wait til that thing starts to work with powered metal, I see an endless supply of screwdrivers.

                    Well it's really not that fast. I think they said 1.5 hours from start to finish to produce the wrench.

                    But still. It's a start.

                            And when it comes time to think about getting a spare in case your current one dies; Print a new printer!

                              And when you start to run out of toner you just print yourself another toner cartridge!!!
