Making Stuff Beyond 3D Printing

Those new to personal 3D printing may still glow from the thrill of creating objects simply by pushing the “print” button. It is always amazing to see objects appear from nothing and then hold them in your hand. Not necessarily. Newbies may think of their 3D printer as a black box that produces objects, which is of course true, but there is much more you can do by thinking of 3D printing in a different way. Think of 3D printing as a type of manufacturing process. It’s one of MANY ways you can build things. By having a 3D printer you now have access to another manufacturing process, which can be combined with other processes to enable the making of amazing things.
