Proving the 3D-printed Etching Press

Martin Schneider designed the world's first 3D-printed etching press and Bill Ritchie ordered one printed for himself as his 77th Birthday present. The parts arrived, Bill assembled it and this video shows Bill proving it works. Learn more about Martin's project at openpressproject-dot-com.

Well I shared your concern over the press quality. But your laugh at the end upon seeing the result is guarantee enough for me to get my own. Great video!

Yes the delight inspired me to keep going and now I have my own 3-D printer and I'm raring to go!
