    they’ve been around for a while now. there are a few basic types- the most common (if you want to call them printers) are CNC milling machines and routers, which can be used to cut wood, plastic, and metal. they work by starting with a big piece of material and reducing it. then there are printers like this that add material in a specific shape, such as sheets of paper, which it glues down and then trims.

    these (CNC) machines are supposedly easy to build on your own, too.

    Janis,

    only the Shapeways team has access to see private models and will only do so to provide service.
    The user decides how the models are used. We will not use them in any other way then produce them if they are ordered.
