Comment on If you bought a 3D printer for personal use, was it worth it?
NoneYa@lemm.ee 3 months agoHave you printed the wrench that went to the International Space Station? That is a whole other level of mind blowing.
Like you can download the same file that was sent into Earth’s orbit and the same file that astronauts printed and used to make repairs up there.
I love to tell people that and people just can’t comprehend that we digitally sent a wrench into space lol

Yea I know, it’s great.
I didn’t because I didn’t need one, but printing bridging features in zero-G must be something else.
Resin printing in space would be such a mess though.
