I want to get a 5.7 and then scan and 3D print most of the parts until I can get a working gun with a ceramic barrel

nioc

some high tensile poly grips and body

ceramic 3d print?

would be good

no, everything else 3D printed except for barrel

Doubt that 3D printer is cheap

I have one.

build one

Give me the delegates Dahnald

just build a 3d printer lmaoo

Build a 3D printer? Ya ok.

3d printers are dirt easy to build now with the RAMPS all on the same board

i mean honestly 99% of the printer is the coding

@ManAnimal ceramic 3D print for baking in the oven is relatively old tech

you can assemble it yourself given you have the servos and belting

yup

What if a 3d printer could print 3d printers

<:hyperthink:462282519883284480>

they DO most of the time

^

most people with a 3d printer wind up printing upgrades

ohgod were dumd

Can you 3D print using metal?

it's possible

its paperclip maximiser in the making

@JackH670 there is an international organisation that makes 3D-rinters capable of making everything for other 3D-printers

not real practical though

There is a 3D printer that printed a smaller 3D printer

They are not yet this far, but close

I can't wait for ai to kill us all

you'll be waiting awhile

i think an ai might want to keep some stock

You just need to assemble it

Kill me robodaddy

Why wouldn’t it be practical to use 3D printers to make components out of metal?

As opposed to just using machining tools

@ubermensch tech doesn't exist that isn't thousands of dollars

Life is like a box of chocolates...

It doesn't last as long for fat people.

@JackH670 if I mark them as spoilers, can I post Nazi execution stills?
