Some people think 3D printing is a useless technology and hobby. Quite frankly, they are just wrong. In this video, I present a range of 3D prints to convert non believers. While not every 3D print is useful, many 3D prints have a positive, meaningful impact on our daily lives. This ranges from convenience, hobbies and even life changing medical technology.
The next time someone dismisses 3D printing as a meaningless activity, send them to this video.
