The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

In the interests of not working, I think we should play show us your shoes.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't understand 3-D printing- are the things made of paper?

Can be, but depends on the printer--metal, polymer, plastics. They're, like, accreted (browser hates that word) layer by layer based on the "print file" sent to the printer. So you can have a model file of a birdbath, for instance, and it will go layer by layer and build one from the bottom up, fusing the material together to make a solid structure.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Or some things, like jewelry -- I'm thinking mostly of rings meant to be cast in precious metals -- print a wax mold, which you take to a jeweler to cast in gold.

My crowns weren't so much printed as they were carved.

Really want all thunder to desist now and stay that way until 7. I ask for so little!

Hey. New board.

In super high tech labs they are printing with all sorts of things - I just heard a piece on NPR about using 3d printers to print microscopic rechargeable batteries smaller than a grain of sand.
