Metal 3D printing: 3D printed stainless steel Moebius strip

This is a metal 3D printed stainless steel moebius strip. The design was made by Andre Bois, a Shapeways community member. I ordered it for myself and now I have a moebius strip, 3D printed out in Stainless Steel! You can see how the moebius strip works by looking at the position of the ants.

@pascal51076 Hey there, US aircraft carriers now have a 3D printer on board for repairs and replacement parts while at sea.

@Shapeways Hey there, do you know if US aircraft carriers now have a 3D printer on board for repairs and replacement parts while at sea? I feel like I've heard that before somewhere though. ;)

Cool video :D

@swordmaul yes, I understand some aircraft carriers do, and thanks..

Just a question... Isn't it possible for people to print out gunparts and assemble a pistol ? if so, do these printers have a protection against that?

[Shapeways]

@Frankydoesitalso you could in theory print out gun parts, or anything really...

Recently a company realized they were 3D printing housing for ATM card skimmers for a client and reported them to the local police.

HOLY SHIT!!! I THINK THIS THING HAS ONLY ONE SIDE!!!

@Shapeways This company should be sued for spying on their customers.

so you got a 3d printer you could have printed anything and you choose to print that crap?

@xarlock667 I suppress my guns and ammunition in a locked cabinet to keep my kids from getting too wild. I'm afraid they'd harm and or kill themselves if I gave them free reign over a shotgun and its shells. Now make the analogy to society.

Amazing how the printer can print metal objects
