But about the boat... What if I want a different color?
One of the more famous 3d printer test prints is a Benchy Boat. #3DBenchy – The jolly 3D printing torture-test
I'm saddened that this isn't one. :)
There is an even bigger 3D printer on You Tube that is used for printing whole houses using a sort of concrete sausage.
I like saussage.... is there a witch involved and girl&boy?lost in the woods?
