So, what’s your bet: will 3D printing change our world? Will it save lives or flood the planet with unnecessary 3D printed stuff?
Please, don’t be too quick to give your answer. First, let’s take a look at the latest news for students: here’s how 3D printing can change your life as a student in the nearest future.
6 Amazing Thing to Do with a 3D Printer in College
3D printing is just right for students who want to do many things on the go:
Food
New 3D printers make cooking pizza easy like never before. You simply insert all the ingredients and get a crusty gourmet pizza in just a moment. Or, what about 3D printed chocolate or pasta? Cooking comes easy to those who decide to throw a decent sum of money on a 3D printer.
A Glove Phone
A well-known artist and inventor, Bryan Cera, offered to use 3D printers to create a glove phone. What it means? It’s a communication device in the form of a glove. When you fit in a SIM card and wear that glove, you can literally speak to your hand. Dial your number in the same way you’d do it using a keyboard. Isn’t it what you sometimes need when all other ideas how to text in class without getting caught fail?
Dishes
Hate washing dishes? No problem. Get them 3D printed for every meal. Use edible materials and… simply eat them instead of washing.
Clothes
Not knowing what to wear or no clean jeans left? A 3D printer might help you solve this problem too. Some exclusive fabric can now be 3D Printed. Simply unlock your creativity but note that some of the 3D printed clothes are transparent and not always appropriate for wearing in class.
Shoes to Put in Your Bag
One more great news for students is that futuristic footwear can be printed using any 3D printer. You can choose not only design and color, but even softness of your 3D printed shoes. You might even make them soft enough to scrunch and put into your bag.
Homework Solution (if You Were in Japan)
A 3D printer can even help you on your homework if you’re in Japan. The problem is that Japanese students have to do numerous writing exercises, scribbling the same kanji characters over and over again. That’s what made lazy but creative students make a three pencil holder via a 3d printer. In this way, they cover three lines at a time. Innovative cheating it is.
