The constraints of working in a very basic program like TinkerCAD and using porous PLA filament are starting to manifest themselves. Particularly projects that are based around musical instruments: how can bearings\/beads be added to a percussive shaker that will materialize as a solid object with no hinges in which to place the beads\/bearings? How can a 3d printed flute adequately carry a channel of air through a porous material as well as maintain its structure in a material that is heat sensitive while receiving a channel of air? How can a 3d printed PLA bell create a ringing noise in plastic rather than metal? Possibly these items could be prototypical in the PLA format and could later be rendered in metal by a business like shapeways? How do businesses like Shapeways develop strongholds on the commercial industry of 3d printing? How close are we to a commercial metal 3d printer?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&ldquo;Rides are a lot of fun, Perry. Your ride, it&rsquo;s amazing.
