Why Was 3D Printing Technology Stalled? This Was A New Technology That Was Going To Allow Us To Make Our Own Plastic Parts and Cut Out Middleman Manufacturers. Why Is The Technology Suppressed? Seems I Should Be Able To Download Blueprint and Print Any Plastic Part I Need.

3D printing was all the rave back around 2012. Now I don't hear anything about it.

I hate having to buy anything made out of plastic. I should be able to just print it with a 3D printing machine and the file for the 3D scan.

Why was this technology basically brought to a halt and not developed?

It seems technology is stalled since 2010.

Not much innovation going on.

Perhaps the motivation and incentive has been removed.
