Now all we need is a network of people who rent 3D printers so we can build our own goodies. No need to buy. Just rent.

Wonder if Kinkoes is planning on getting into the business? Probably not; ATF’d be all over them like white-on-rice. Maybe some “Covert 3-D Cafes” will spring-up in some warehouses or underground bunkers. Lots of possibilities, though.

“One of our key industry advantages is that our machines are able to print products in materials that are desired by industrial customers,” says ExOne’s prospectus. It can make products consisting of silica sand, ceramics, stainless steel, bronze and glass, “and we are in various stages of qualifying additional industrial materials for printing, such as titanium, tungsten carbide, aluminum and magnesium.”

Hiring a 3D printer is expensive! I wanted to have a couple of prototypes of a new item I've designed made up in elastomeric material. I have several in ABS plastic, but the finished item will be molded in elastomeric material so I wanted a couple for final testing. It was going to cost $150 for two and they are less than 6000 mm3 each! The place also wanted to charge me $60+ bucks for overnight delivery! $210+ is a bit steep for just two copies.

Remember, plastic parts designed by computer can be the pattern to cut in steel with a plasma cutter. Those parts are more useful.
Pistol barrels can be made on a lathe.
Yes, it is possible to build a very nice weapon. Is it worth the effort? That depends on the circumstances.

Staples is already in the business, but not in my neck of the woods.

Here is a nice prison made semi-auto firearm! Even the cartridges are hand made in a California prison!

Wonder if the store’s “Print Dept Mgr” is an ATF plant so he can monitor what’s being produced?

Good luck finding ammo for it.

Someone needs to figure out how to 3d print ammunition.

"Now all we need is a network of people who rent 3D printers so we can build our own goodies. No need to buy. Just rent." Actually, many large cities have "maker shops" where aficionados of high-tech "do-it-yourself" can rent machine time on various CNC (and other) equipment. These are clubs where members pay a small annual fee to support rent and equipment purchases.

I’ve heard rumors about that before, it seems to me that it would be possible to build bullets that make use of some of the more esoteric fluid flow dynamics theories to achieve much longer ranges than the current generation of ammunition.

Grenade body's are easy it is the other component's that are hard.

Wonder how their shotgun design would be. You can already build one out of pipe. You could probably easily create ergonomic designs to make them as capable and friendly as a cheap crack barrel.

The idea of renting them would be to relieve the owner of liability. You’d sign some release form and plug in the instructions and push the button yourself. In that way, they didn’t actually participate in the manufacture of whatever “evil” product that was made.
