It's big step between nice and lovely..
On another note, my kite folk are doing some pretty amazing stuff with a laser cutter, just think of what you could do with foils, they could be made so they made no noise, imagine that.. |

You should get busy with those CNC cutters and cut the back off that Aura and make it a lovely single hander for small people..

I have seen the 3d printer at Allen brothers in action.
We use CNC to cut our foam core and build new plugs...The 49er plugs was re cut in 2009 to do the new deck mould.

I must say I find the prospect of 3d printing fabrication very exciting. There's a bunch of stuff I could do with it given suitable materials, which of course will be the crunch part.

3D printers that can print other 3D printers is an interesting concept.

I guess it's all down to the stuff they use to print, imagine that graphene stuff, one molecule thick being used to 'print' bits..
Why we might even get bits that work and you don't have to scrabble around looking for the cir clip you just dropped in the boat park. |

Amazing possibilities with the new 3d printing tech.....Bit like a startrek replicator.
Unfortunately there is a downside with most new tech: A substantial number of folk believe that making the world safer involves giving everyone a gun.
