For me, the future of 3D printing is limitless. I see endless possibilities when presented to 3D printing. As a designer, I feel especially comforted in knowing that the future of 3D printing is being put back into the hands of the creators and makers. When I read in fabricated about the ability for limitless customization it made me wonder, what would I do if I could create anything I wanted? Would I create a metal phone case that was gold? Or would I create an entire chessboard with my own little chess pieces? When thinking about back to chapters 1 and 2, When thinking about a world where if I lost my toothbrush I would be able to print a new one at home. I would be able to pick what I wanted my toothbrush to look like, if I wanted it to be soft, or hard, and most importantly: I could create it at home. I love the idea of having small businesses being important. I hate what corporation have done and when I read about small based cloud companies being able to print for someone, rather than having a corporation mass producing it- then I am all for it! I think the importance of knowing the art of customization is possible and will continue to live on in a mass produced society, that is what makes me want to continue to learn about 3D printing, and the technology behind it. Again, being able to have customization at the small-scale level is what I believe to be the best part about 3D printing. Being able to see companies like Shapeways form and create a niche market for their clients is what really keeps me focused on the future of 3D printing. I want to see more companies like shape ways thriving from 3D printing. If we could completely eliminate mass production and start to print EVERYTHING, then the entire consumer world would change. A revolution!
