3D Printing

One of the topics I enjoyed in this class was 3D printing.  I find it extremely intriguing that a technology that has been around for such a short time has created so much change in the world.  The concept of creating a solid 3D sculpture of any shape can have nearly unlimited uses in almost every field.
