Are you unsure what all this “3-D printing” is all about? Well, Microsoft has produced a video explaining it all … 3D Printing Support in Windows 8.1 Explained!
“It seems like everyone is talking about 3D printing these days. Every day there are amazing new stories of people using this technology to create cool new “things”, to solve difficult manufacturing issues, and even to advance scientific causes.
3D printers are rapidly becoming more affordable and more capable. Because of this, 3D printers are showing up on more desktops, workbenches, craft benches, and dining room tables than ever before. If you are looking for a challenge or to save money you can even build your own 3D printer! Don’t have software design tools? No problem! You can find thousands of free objects from online sources (thingiverse.com for example). You can download these 3D models in seconds and then print them at home on your 3D printer. Amazing!”
