To start off my company right, I need proper equipment. What kind of equipment? A 3D printer, of course! Go big or go home, am I right? If only I had any money to purchase one…oh well. I’ll figure that out later. I plan to shop around and research for a little while longer, just like I’ve done that past couple of months.

This picture is of two plastic wrenches that have been printed on 3D printers. The grooves you see are of the different layers of plastic. They are fully functioning. And the coolest part? There’s no seam from installing the roller wheel (worm gear). That means it was all printed at once. Wrap your head around how a 3D printer is able to do that for a second.
