Good shit. Making prosthetics more available and spreading awareness of them using pop culture is a positive thing.

Are there any people doing Actually Important things with 3D printing besides people who make prosthetics and people who make guns?

It’s being used more in manufacturing and prototyping for iterative design, and a few other medical technologies and procedures.

It has a lot of potential for medical stuff, expect to see more of that as time goes on.

It’s speeding up a lot of production and prototyping, but most of that stuff isn’t as controversy/headline generating.
