Episode 290: The Black Friday 3D Printing Panel

We’ve wanted to an episode on 3D printers for a long time but every time we went to book one, one of our printers stopped working for some stupid reason, we got mad, and said nevermind. Yup, it’s still a little bit of a hobbyist market. It feels like the Apple I era in a way but it’s starting to feel more and more like the months leading up to the release of the 1977 Holy Trinity. And our listeners are hackers and we want to demystify this stuff a little for anyone maybe thinking of having Santa deliver one of these for the holidays.
