The New Hotness

  • Personal 3D Printing: 2014 Status Report

    Herewith, the MHVLUG – 3D Printing Status 2104 slides (remember slides?) I’ll be using for my talk this evening at the MHVLUG meeting; you don’t get the audio track in the PDF, but the pictures may be informative.

    If you believe everything you read, you might think personal 3D printing will go like this:

    3D Printing 2014 - What They Say
    3D Printing 2014 – What They Say

    But it requires entirely too much of this:

    3D Printing 2014 - What They Dont Say
    3D Printing 2014 – What They Dont Say

    Personal 3D printing requires that you take full control:

    3D Printing 2014 - Personal 3D Printing
    3D Printing 2014 – Personal 3D Printing

    Not knowing the answers, I’ll still make some guesses about what lies ahead:

    3D Printing 2014 - The Future
    3D Printing 2014 – The Future

    And I found the best tchotchkes ever:

    3D Printing 2014 - Tchotchkes
    3D Printing 2014 – Tchotchkes

    See you there…

    (The PDF has clickable links for those images, plus the 60-some-odd other slides. The plan: talk like an auctioneer for an hour!)
