    Spot on Bowtie. It's not fully developed as far as materials. But is has a ton of applications. Lose a knob on your electronics? Broken plastic on an appliance? just go to your local hardware, they can D/L the design and make it for you. Or dream up your own and take it in, just like you can go to Kinko's to have a resume printed out.

    We would never be short horn adapters again- just have a member who has one take it in to have the design digitized and email it to you...

    When we can do that even I will have to admit it's arrived. But you may need a hereafter phone to call me and gloat.
    Your neighbors called. They like your music.

    So wait, are you excited about 3D printing becoming a bigger industry, or does it actually annoy you?

    What makes you think I feel the same way I did in 2013?

    For me, it’s a huge opportunity to grow, so I really don’t get how anyone could be against such a huge and promising industry for starting and developing a business. I know some people still think 3D printing is just about making cheap plastic junk, but in reality, it’s high-precision manufacturing using plastics and composite materials—especially with Epitum’s JetSmart technology more about it on their website. You can create high-quality, stylish furniture, medical components, gadget casings, and so much more. Honestly, this is one of the most future-proof industries out there.

    The folks on DIYaudio are going bonkers printing (complex) horns, phase plugs, in ceiling multiway speakers, Soundbars, Boom Boxes, even whole Synergy concept multiway horns more complex in detail to Danley's!
    Loud is Beautiful if it's Clean! As always though, the usual disclaimers apply to this post's contents.

    Hah, it's one of the risks of 1) being an old guy, and 2) hanging around the same subs for decades!
