Never mind printing metal –

So for making lost wax casting moulds printing in wax for burnout should not be a problem at all…

Which one was it moved to.?

[JasonBModerator @jasonb]

Can't remember now, it was nothing to do with 3D printing, the other Jason had just posted his reply in the wrong thread and Michael questioned if it should be in this one. I moved it on Jason's request.

I'm disappointed, John … I thought that, given the title of the thread, you would have managed some witty remark about Supermarket Curry.

I'm actually disappointed that they don't show what can be done usefully with one and not printing a stupid naff plastic broach that in real terms, labour and materials , costs £15 and you can buy 10 for a £1 at poundland..

Although in retrospect I'm not because to do that you have to belong to the real world and that has never applied to journalists.

[Michael GilliganParticipant @michaelgilligan61133]

John,

Not for the first time, and probably not for the last, I am confused. … Did you read the text, or just look at the pictures ?.

Whether this is a practical proposition remains to be seen; but the motivation is obviously serious.

Yes, the reporting in the Metro is predictably lightweight … it's a freebie paper to amuse bored travellers.
