We can't seriously expect everyone to work as a hotel maid, waiter at the place that features "analog waiters" or a clerk at the leftover dinosaur retail outlet. No leather needs be produced, no wood harvested, no construction, no sewing. When you can download the 3-D print of your living room couch on Amazon, it'll be a tough transition for the whole world.

Also on display will be a unique architectural design concept done in collaboration with ExOne. The panels are affixed to form a semi-structural shell that is further supported with light-weight aluminum rods flexed in tension. Saltygloo is constructed using 336 3D-printed panels made from salt harvested from the San Francisco Bay. The Emerging Objects exhibit will feature Saltygloo, a fascinating experiment in large-scale, light-weight additive manufacturing. Emerging Objects is putting some of these technological wonders on display January 31st and February 1st at the 3D Printer World Expo in Burbank. For builders and architects in the 21st Century, 3D printers are enabling groundbreaking design, materials, applications and projects. From carved wood to chiseled stone to clay bricks to steel beams, humanity has long been in search of custom materials, better structures and grand design. The quest for custom building materials is nearly as old as humanity itself. ![]()
