Fantastic stuff
3D printing has sure come a long way in the last few years, and I look forward to the time when it is accessible to almost everyone (it would be nice if I didn't have to throw out my 15 year old large-format copier just because I can't get a couple of small plastic parts for it anymore).
~grins~ I'll admit that I was jealous when a few of my colleagues got 3d printers for Christmas, maybe if I'm good, Santa will bring me one next year.
The only 'new' part of this...
Do you 'own' the rights to your body features and shapes?
Other IP rights become fuzzy too.
And this is merely the very beginning of our ability to copy, edit and produce objects rapidly and relatively inexpensively....
Tastable carbon
Some went one better...
This is a machine designed and built by some enterprising individuals that can print complex 3D shapes from pure sugar using sliced 3d wireframes.
All it does is melt a layer of sugar according to the shape needed, which is then buried under a layer of fresh sugar and melted... and so on.
Its now several years old and is quite a refined project.

In fact, has previously said, the Bologna game, Silva wear Nike CTR360 Maestri soccer cleats is ready to play, but 4wheel in the past, Silva has still not recovered, after he had tried two times to recovery and trained with the rest of the team, but feel discomfort, returned to training alone," the market" and even worry, Silva's wear Nike CTR360 Maestri II soccer cleats problem is not only in the body, but also in psychology. But in the long run, Silva took over this period of time is also good, last year the summer did not get sufficient rest, the Americas Cup after being recalled playing Club Super Cup, and led to the now consequences, and this summer, Silva wear ctr360 maestri soccer cleats will take part in the Olympic Games, from April to May truce, on his body is also a adjustment.
But for AC Milan, the good news is that includes a round the absent Abate, other players can currently separate training comeback, only Silva and Pato wear ctr360 maestri ii elite soccer cleats two. According to sky projected lineup, goalkeeper Abbiati, the two edge guards are Abate and Antonini wear nike tiempo legend soccer cleats in midfield, Van Bommel Nocerino, Sulley Muntari, waist, Boateng, best soccer cleats Ibrahimovic striker, Cassano, guard Nesta wear Nike Tiempo Legend III soccer cleats may play, the only suspense is who is going to replace Silva with partner Nesta, at present, Bonera's wear Nike Total90 Laser soccer cleats injury, to gain the trust of Mexes, before paragraph time was good for, in which between three people, Allegri wear nike total90 laser elite soccer cleats may need to struggle.

Even with my ability to take accent heavy mangled English, (as spoken by my older family members) & 'translate' it into a more coherent English for visiting friends - I get a headache & a funny feeling that I have either exited or entered a parallel inverse (perhaps both at the same instant) when reading your comment above.
I say this without any malice but rather as a 'heads-up" to let you know I have no idea what you were tring to say.

>> Sumi Das: Creating a 3-D image is a snap -- a camera snap that is. Autodesk recently unveiled two free pieces of software -- 123D Catch and 123D Make, that let people create 3-D objects from photos, and print out cardboard templates.
>> I've taken this -- this -- the little garden Buddha -- there's a little garden statue. And I've -- I've wandered around it with -- with the camera -- a point and shoot camera, and I've started taking pictures of it. So you just need to select the images that you would like to create a 3-D object, and you upload 'em to the cloud.
>> Sumi Das: That's where Autodesk software goes to work, trying to determine the camera angle of each photo, and assembling them in the cloud. It creates a 3D model out of all of those images.
>> So what I've received back from -- from the cloud -- from the 123D Catch cloud is -- is basically a 3DP file, which is a small reference file that contains all the information that I need for the textures to be placed on a 3D wire frame model.
>> Sumi Das: So you could send this image to a 3D printer, or make it yourself out of cardboard with 123D Make.
>> We've brought in the model, and we're basically saying we would like to slice this model. And it -- it comes up in -- in -- in slices. The laser cutter cut those out just almost like writing like -- like a -- just like a 2D print. This cuts just vectors out of a cardboard.
>> Sumi Das: 3D printing is generating a lot of buzz. Bartel phonetic says the technology is a disruptor.
>> So I -- I can see anything in there from -- from an educational purpose of putting say a 3D math -- mathematical model in -- into 123D Make, and then really touch math by making a cardboard model out of it.
>> Sumi Das: But not everything can be captured in 3D.
>> If you start taking pictures of a white wall or so, something that doesn't really have textures, then it gets difficult.
>> Sumi Das: But for enthusiasts, turning 2D into 3D just got a whole lot more accessible. For Smart Planet, I'm Sumi Das.
