<p>The quality of 3D prints has vastly improved in the last year. The technology seems to be advancing with the speed of lightning. 3D printers are dropping in price and it is already foreseeable, when each household will have one.</p> <p>There is one major drawback to the technology - don´t underestimate the effort and the knowledge it takes to prepare the drawings of what you would like to print. Even for a CAD expert, it will take weeks of fulltime work to prepare a drawing (or a set of drawings) for a body shell of a locomotive.</p> <p> </p>
