Right on! I only recently found it when I was researching 3D printing. It's a decent platform.

Yea, I gotta get familiar with it and use it alongside the skatehive folks.. creating skating content is what I've found brings me the most happiness.. and the folks at SkateHive have some big things on the agenda, so it's nice to be able to build something on the blockchain with them aswell

Can we get Tony Hawk to join?

We are currently working on all avenues so to answer your question: #soon

And very soon, the more the better. If anybody can get Joe Rogan, then he could try to interview Tony Hawk again and tell him about this new thing called crypto and everything. A guy like Joe could possibly sell crypto to celebrities and the like. Outside of that, it can be a little bit challenging to onboard people who may not really need more money and not to say that they in reality don't need more money as life is still expensive no matter who you are but you know what I mean so to speak.

Yupp, we will see where we are at, at the end if year 5 of this blockchain, and going into year 10.. we are still so young!

Does a 3D printer mold 3D structures using plastic or a limited amount of other types of material (AKA ink or whatever we want to call it) that can be pasted and then hardened? I've not looked up how 3D printing works but I assume an average 3D printer won't be able to build houses, cars, or build using metal, steel, iron, brick, titanium, or wood or other things. When I first heard about 3D printing, I assumed it would be like a bunch of robotic arms inside a small manufacturing assembling-line factory where it could build anything out of whatever material you gave it. But I guess 3D printers are not that complex but 3D printers can do some things which is still pretty cool. I will have to lookup what kind of ink or material you can feed it and lookup whether or not people can actually build guns using 3D printers or say how about a small plastic trash can, can it make something like that?

Looking into the "Shore D" of various printed materials is a great place to start to see if printed materials are capable of taking the stress a metal part will. I personally use Solidworks and rough in the material properties then run physics simulations to see if failures occur.

They are 3D printing cement buildings and stuff I hear over in europe. It's still a new tech of sorts and tons of exploration and scientific probing to be done.

The layer by layer deposit of materials is the most popular printing method, Sometimes filament extrusion, sometimes UV goo depositing, then there are other less common methods.

It's a great hobby. And yeah, you CAN build firearms with Strictly 3D printing.. But they aren't really durable. You are more likely to find success printing the parts of the gun under no or little stress then getting parts like the bolt carrier group or firing pins in OEM / factory built models. Most guys print gun parts to avoid laws about serial numbers or to avoid background checks.. Generally the parts themselves aren't required to be registered and can be bought without issue.
