3D Printing

I'm fascinated by the idea of 3D-printing. It's gone from concept to standard technique very quickly. I've come across a couple of interesting things recently.

  • The BrainLamp - made in a limited edition of 100 - yours for €6000.
  • The RepRap - an open source 3D printer.
All that's missing is an open source brain scanner and you'll be able to make a brain lamp based on your own brain!

Maybe they should add it as an extra service during an MRI scan at the hospital ;)

Rene, great idea; I'll pass it on to my friend the neurosurgeon.
