Discovery Channel - Savage Builds

Recommended Posts

Adam Savage, formerly of Mythbusters has a new show 'Savage Builds'.  First episode they build an Iron Man suit.   Whether you are into that or not, just wanted to say that everyone should watch the first 6 minutes, where build pieces of the suit with a titanium 3D printer.   Wow---that thing is incredible.  Seriously, as a child when I watched Star Trek and they had machines that could create things from nothing---to actually seeing it happen now, just amazing.   If you are into cool tech, check it out.  Tried to find a clip of the 3d printer, but no luck.

A titanium 3d printer is nuts. That is notoriously one of the most difficult metals to weld because of how clean everything has to be. Any impurity will crack the weld
