A look through the Brainerd Dispatch archives with Terry McCollough combing the microfilm for tidbits of history through the decades going back to 1923.
Custom-made prosthetic limbs. and believe it or not, scientists are even developing the technology to print human organs, and the machines that come to mind are kind of 3-d printers that layer through kind of a squirting process layer by layer build up something that looks like a physical object, but there are actually many, many different i ve used every 3-d printer from the beginning. but that s among the least useful machines. it s like the 1950s telling the chef the future of your kitchen is a microwave oven. microwave ovens are good, we have them, but it doesn t replace the rest of the kitchen. if a 3-d printer is like a microwave, then what are some of the other kitchen appliances? at mit s lab there are high-powered lasers that can cut shapes very precisely allowing two-dwengs dimensional shapes to fit together to make three-dimensional structures. there are machines that cut wax for making molds and casting parts. there are water jet cutters where high pressure water push
There are medical applications, like the production of custom-made prosthetic limbs. and believe it or not, scientists are even developing the technology to print human organs, and the machines that come to mind are kind of 3-d printers that layer through kind of a squirting process layer by layer build up something that looks like a physical object, but there are actually many, many different i ve used every 3-d printer from the beginning. but that s among the least useful machines. it s like the 1950s telling the chef the future of your kitchen is a microwave oven. microwave ovens are good, we have them, but it doesn t replace the rest of the kitchen. if a 3-d printer is like a microwave, then what are some of the other kitchen appliances? at mit s lab there are high-powered lasers that can cut shapes very precisely allowing two-dimensional shapes to fit together to make three-dimensional structures. there are machines that cut wax for making molds and casting parts. there are
