In a convention center in Chicago, there’s a living-room-sized 3-D printer that’s just finished printing the parts for a driveable plastic car. The engineers working on the car — including those involved in developing the plastic, the printer, and the car design — are hoping to have something ready to drive off the premises by the end of the week.
Here’s a Vine of the car print, made by Local Motors, one of the car’s developers:
The printer is the world’s first large-scale 3-D printer that works with polymers, Oak Ridge National Laboratory engineer Lonnie Love told the Chicago Tribune. Oak Ridge worked with a company called Cincinnati Incorporated to develop the printer. “It builds some of the biggest parts in the world, faster than anything else,” Love said.
