What's this mess?

Because its more content on the ATS site.
Its more activity, more views of advertisements.

There is no penalty for creating duplicate threads.

Try it yourself. Go create a new thread, citing this exact same youtube video with "OMG go look at this amazing video!!"
You wont be banned, warned or penalised in any way at all.

Conversely, anyone who tells you another thread already exists *will* be in danger of being banned.

You got that right. No wonder why "Top Members" are disappearing here. Good threads for ATS are like organic crops for Monsanto.

Also, a good practice in ATS was to ask the mods to close your own thread as soon you find out it's been posted already. So, blame on members hungry of flags and stars too.

This post has a big chance to be deleted right ?

I was thinking about a mother cube (like a motherboard, but one more dimension) but I think there would be massive heat issues...

NOT if it wrote the copper piping for water cooling all through the cube. and the pumps as well? Anyway if one of these machines can make a CV joint for a car, ball bearings and all, THEN ill be impressed. until then i will consider it a fancy drop-forge machine.

Man that is AWESOME

I want one so bad now, I bet they will cost more then a spankin new SUV?

I was thinking could they make a replica of Megan Fox?

Another great thing would be to replicate firearms? Make a copy of my AR15

DO WANT

I bet the Chinese are drooling. Think of what this could do for mass production.

No, the opposite. This technology could eventually disrupt the current business model and undercut the developing world. In a world of 'replicators' creativity and IPR enforcement becomes the most valuable commodity. A cheap labour force becomes irrelevant when the product comes out a machine at the touch of button and the machine itself could be anywhere on the globe.

At the moment it can't do things like electronics but all the mass produced plastic crap could be made locally instead of in a 'low cost country'.

If these are several of the technologies that are available to the "general public" can you imagine what the government and the hidden PTB have (covertly) at their disposal?

Betcha' it's mind blowing !!!!

I had vaguely heard of 3d printers, but I had not imagined them being this replicator machine. WOWOWOWOW.
I saw someone mentioned graphene...... So basically you can make anything you want out of the most amazing new supermetal ever. Graphene is already pretty cheap, and they're saying it's just gonna keep getting cheaper. I don't think we're going to have to wait very long before these are common. People are going to design so much amazing stuff, and it'll be so easy to download the design and print it out.
I've been sitting here just shaking my head in amazement for the last 15 minutes.

imagine the future an what this machine could be capable of..atm it can copy toys, wrenches ect whats to say down the track maybie people? living things? kindve like a clone of some sort.

On Topic: Fantastic technology. Imagine what is hidden!
I am still back in the 90's with my 1D printer, It will probably be a while before I can
afford a 2D equivalent, and by the time I look at purchasing a 3D version, they will
probably have moved on to a 7D printer, or something.

I am forever destined to be behind the times (and dimensions), I guess.
Bollocks!

That's me, I still don't even have a hi-def TV. This technology is amazing, I'm still finding it hard to believe that it has been around for 10+ years as a lot of members claim?? Makes me really wonder what else is out there that I've missed.

This has been posted a hundred times

Still amazing though.

You know how expensive "normal" printer cartridges are... now imagine how expensive the material cartridges most likely will be...
