Ten lessons, Ten quotes – three dimensional digital design

Ten Lessons from the book Fabricated

3D printer can make impossible things to real in the future
The mass-manufactured product can produce via 3D printing, and it will completely change the traditional way to produce these products
Cloud manufacturing is the future business trend, there will be more and more small businesses and form a huge online market all around the world
3D printing’s applications in really life are still faraway from the future world, where people can use it for everything
Software design is the main thing of 3D printing, but it fails to keep up with development of 3D printer so far.
3D printing food will become a big thing
3D printing has been invited to classroom, and it shows a positive impact on schooling
3D printing in Bio-tech raises up more ethical concern, due to 3D printing human parts
3D printing technologies offer a more eco-friendly way to manufacture things, reducing waste
Copyrights and ethical issue have been huge concerns over 3D printing techobology

Ten Quotes from my classmate related to the lessons

“This printing process is a tool that makes the once impossible, possible, and will eventually help people to gain control over the behavior of physical things.” said Jewel Tolbert, September 5, 2015 at 12:18 pm
“3D printed bread should be varying in different flavors and manufactured faster than traditional production so that 3D printed bread is a more efficient choice. The benefits of shifting towards 3D printing is that there is less pollution generated.” said Tina Jing Ru Shen, September 15, 2015 at 4:13 pm
“The 3-d printing world is backed by Makers, who see this new mode of production as a fun and satisfying way to create new things whether cheaper, quicker, or more complex or all three.” said br148591, September 14, 2015 at 2:35 pm
“3D printing is still under development, but we expect that 3D printing business will have a potential to grow impressively in the future.” said IPPEITA KAKIMOTO, September 27, 2015 at 10:45 pm
“The current state of 3D printing is advancing toward these futuristic goals, but not quite there yet. While reading Chapter 5 & 6, I see that currently there are too many steps that need to take place in order to produce a 3D model. In some of the processes materials need to be put in a furnace to harden or the designer has to monitor all steps for the printing, from design to product.”Jewel Tolbert, September 25, 2015 at 8:32 pm
“However, if commercial-grade food printer products were launched in the near future, people would definitely come in handy, save money, save time and would not need to spoil food.” IPPEITA KAKIMOTO, October 5, 2015 at 10:10 pm
“I find that children are the most impressionable and if introduced to this method at young ages, it may be more beneficial to them in the long run. The endlessness of a child’s imagination is never a thing to take for granted or waste, especially when it comes to the arts and engineering.” Jewel Tolbert, October 6, 2015 at 5:32 am
“If 3d printing body parts were possible, then the gap between the rich and poor would grow. The rich would be able to print vanity body parts at will, the physical markers of old age would not touch them and the rich would live prolonged lives. Wrinkles and the aches of old age would be a reality only for the poor.” said mc061311, October 6, 2015 at 9:32 pm
“3D printing would solve or at least alleviate that problem, it does not require a large amount of supply and energy but the overall output would be lower than traditional methods. This would greatly help with the creation of food via 3D printers, it would be cleaner and home friendly.” ep145853, October 14, 2015 at 1:41 pm
“I think this would be an issue if falls in bad hands. This also applies to drugs that could be printed in a 3d machine. This would take a lot of thinking for when the time comes when everybody owns a 3d printer. Like the chapter said, that with apps software made carefully can give people access to only certain models that are legal or drugs that are being prescribed.” said l.munive, October 14, 2015 at 12:31 pm
