3D Printing - Startup Digest - Airplanes, Grandmas & a Bus - June 17th - June 24th

3D Printing June 17, 2016 It's been a busy week! I am in the middle of attending San Diego Startup Week (June 13-17) and have used Lyft 20+ times to get around downtown. Anyway, hope you are doing well. By the way, if you have kids and are thinking about getting them started on 3D Printing, try TINKERCAD as an introduction. Other than that, see you next time!

In any case, this is my take on what it would take for mass adoption of 3D Printing. 3D Printing with AMORPHOUS material Scott Grunewald - 3DPrint.com There's a swedish startup called Exmet that has partnered with a materials company called Heraeus Group on developing a process to 3D Print stuff using amorphous metal components. Interesting.
