3D Printing and it's Development

      3D Printing      3D printing has come a long way since the first time it was recorded to be functional. I believe people who have a huge imagination should invest in these machines. Anybody who has the imagination is able to create it using software and the printer, the sky is the limit. The history of the 3D printer was first recorded in 1981 by a Japanese Inventor named Hideo Kodama. The product used ultraviolet lights to harden polymers to create solid objects.  Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) is another, more advanced, form of 3D printing. It uses Additive manufacturing and a powder polymer (Nylon) and uses a laser to fuse the powder together to create objects.  Fused Deposition Modeling(FDM) developed by Scott Crump, is the most common form of 3D printing used today. Known as 'desktop 3D printer' the printer heats a cable of thermoplastic into liquid form and extrudes it layer by layer.  Overall like stated before 3D printing has changed and improved over the past th
