Does anyone know much about 3D printing?
I am listening to Cory Doctorow's book Makers (which you can actually download for free here: craphound.com/makers/download/
It talks about using 3D printers to make anything you want. Cory is the co-editor of www.BoingBoing.com.
Then I just read this article about how 3D printer costs will drop in 2014 because of patent expirations: mashable.com/2013/07/22/3d-printing-patents/
I think this might work especially well with Heroes since they are just PVC and don't need any moving parts.
Could this mean we could design customs on our computers, and then just print them out?
