I recently did a video for Intel, and one of the things that was in the video was the use of a 3D printer. Check this out (not the video I voiced)....depending on who you are, it can blow the mind with possibility. The technology has been around since 1984, but the cost of using it has come down to the point where you and I can use it.

Jason.... yes, amazing technology and the possibilities boggle the mind.
Interestingly, about a week ago I just happened across this on YouTube:

A lesson from all of this? Encourage your children to become corporate and copyright lawyers. There'll be plenty of work for them in the future.

Pretty unbelievable! I've seen printers as low as $1400. And yes Bruce...kids should pursue copyright law and don't forget to start investments in ABS plastics and liquid metal companies. Or better yet...start now with your own manufacturing company for the filiment supplies. A one color spool retails for about $50.00.
