We have these printers at my workplace and although they are great the idea of printing tools is a load of rubbish because the use of extra resin for the powder formula still with not make a strong enougth bond, compared to the original.
We have tested the strength of the formulas and although they are stong, for industrial application it would be useless.
In case you wondered we have the same model of ZXY printer that they use.

[QUOTE=shatteredwindow;31000948]I'd love him even more if he could print me a 3d printer.[/QUOTE]

Its possible. There are home made 3d printers known as RepRap's. You buy the first set, and from there on you can print every set after.

For anyone interested in making their OWN 3d printer and then being able to print them for your friends, go to [URL]http://reprap.org/wiki/Main_Page[/URL]

I would totally print a hooker.

Would work for models etc,
If you first paint them with color and use some clear paint(the swedish word is laq(like seethrough paint) to make it have a stronger exterior 3d models would work in a printer like this ?

[QUOTE=Combine 177;31007882]First you need to get a 3D model of it and where do you think you could get that?

[/QUOTE]

Well you can easily model any kind of dildo in a sculpting program. It's a cylinder with some protrusions.

I want them to print me a Rolex watch.[/QUOTE]
I'm pretty sure it needs to actually be able to scan the moving mechanics of the object, a watch of any kind has the moving parts hidden from view. Besides a 3d printed Rolex would look terrible.
