What is a 3D Printer?
3D Printers are not your average printer
They bear little resemblance to toady's document or photo printers
They can build objects from scratch-or rather, from a CAD or 3D scanner file-out of a variety of materials
How does it Work?
A typical 3D Printer is very much like an inkjet printer operated from puter
It builds up a 3D model one layer at a time, from the bottom upward, by repeatedly printing over the same area
The printer creates a model over a period of hours by turning a 3D CAD drawing into lots of tow-dimensional, cross-sectional layers
Most 3D Printers essentially works by extruding molten thermoplastics (mostly ABS) through a tiny nozzle that it moves around precisely puter control
Is not necessarily need to print in 3D with plastic: in theory, you can print objects using any molten material that hardens and sets reasonably quickly
ABS has a whiteish-yellow color in it sraw form, but pigments can be added to make it virtually any color
