Paper and color–a natural for 3D printing

May 27, 2015 By Leslie Langnau Leave a Comment

Additively making parts using ordinary paper as the build material is a bit deceptive. On the one hand, you think such a 3D printed object can’t possibly handle the potential wear and tear you might expose it to. On the other hand, with the right … [Read more...] about Paper and color–a natural for 3D printing
