The firm, Defcad, is the brainchild of Cody Wilson, law student and self-styled crypto-anarchist. Mr Wilson said the revolution which many predict 3D printing will bring about will only happen if it can be freed from corporate ties. The blueprints available on the site will be for ‘important stuff’, he said. ‘Not trinkets, not garden gnomes but the things institutions and industries have an interest in keeping from us; access, medical devices, drugs, goods, guns.'”
