2  Method of “additive manufacturing”  Where objects are made by adding material as opposed to “subtractive manufacturing” where objects are sculpted out of an object  Machines are given a model and they build the object one layer at a time  More efficient and more complex objects can be created  http://www.3dprinter.net/reference/what-is- 3d-printing http://www.3dprinter.net/reference/what-is- 3d-printing

3  Manufacturing industries will suffer when consumers can produce their needed objects  Shipping industry will be hit hard because there will be much less need for delivery when people are more self sufficient  Many factors of production will be transferred to the consumer  Manufacturing industry will need to innovate to remain relevant to consumer

4  Copyrights can very easily be infringed by people making imitations of products  Intellectual property rights are going to be very hard to distribute when everyone has the power to be so creative  A new system of copyright and intellectual property laws will need to be enacted to prepare for the creative revolution of 3D printing  https://www.efa.org.au/2013/08/08/3d- printing-issues/ https://www.efa.org.au/2013/08/08/3d- printing-issues/

5  3D printers are so versatile they can easily be used to create parts for guns and explosives  Even scarier is that the printers can make these items out of plastic and they will be undetectable by metal detectors.  Security will need to be increased at airports and other high population areas  There needs to be a way to make models for weapon and weapon parts unavailable  http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/05/23/govt- memo-warns-3d-printed-guns-may-be-impossible- to-stop/ http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/05/23/govt- memo-warns-3d-printed-guns-may-be-impossible- to-stop/

6 ProsCons Gives consumers power over retailers Damages many preexisting industries Opens a wealth of creative opportunities Legal system will need to be adjusted to prepare for innovation Items can be created more efficiently with much less waste Weapons can be created More complex items can be more easily created Security industry will need to prepare for nearly undetectable 3D printed weapons Less need for transportation expenses when consumers can produce their needs at home Consumers become more self sufficient

7  The potential benefits from these machines are worth the adjustments the world will have to make for the arrival of these machines  Three dimensional printing is much more efficient than traditional building methods  They will allow people to explore possibilities never imagined before
