Will 3D printing put Bunnings out of business?
Imagine if you never had to go to Bunnings again? What if you could use your printer to print out nails, hinges, door handles and every other knick knack that you might need during your home renovations? The latest 3D printers help make that fantasy a reality. You could even print out your own tools!
The printing and publishing world was changed forever in the 1980's and 1990's when desktop publishing enabled everyday people to write, design and publish books and brochures using their computer and printer at home.
Today it is the world of manufacturing and retailing that is about to change forever. 3D printers enable you to physically print 3D objects using plastic or metals at your home. This technology has been around for over 30 years, however this year we're now seeing the cost of a 3D printer come right down in price. You can purchase a 3D printer for under $2,000, and the latest reports are that soon the price will be as low as $350.
So what would you use your 3D printer to print?
These videos provide some great insights into how 3D printing works, and what you could choose to print from your home right now.
