“Three dimensional printing is going to be huge. Some geek friends are already starting to play around with it. With some relatively rudimentary equipment, they have printed out some pretty cool 3-D items. Most interesting from a functional perspective is they had a heavy duty steel cabinet with a missing part. They were able to print out the missing part instead of ordering, paying and waiting for the part to be delivered. They tell me 3-D Kinko-type copy shops are not far away. My guess is that we will all eventually have 3-D copiers in our homes and offices. Need a gun, coffee maker or clock? Print it out.”
