Still think 3d printing is only for geeks? Here's a great primer

Way too many people still think 3d printing is an anomoly, a waste of time, a hobby. I would tender the view that this is the repsonse of dinosaurs viewing the mammal, or of "serious computing" specialists considered the early micro computer enthusiasts.

In any case, it was a pleasure to come across this TED talk by Lisa Harouni that gives a great update of all the different elements of 3d printing as it stands today, and points to the rapidly emerging personal manufacturing future.
