Staples makes 3D printing easy with in-store service



3D printing is a growing industry, but the equipment is still expensive. Now one retailer is making it easier to create just about anything you can think of.

Staples was the first major retailer to sell 3D printers, now they’ve opened 3D print shops inside stores in Los Angeles and New York. Recently we got a chance to try out the emerging technology and print a 3D version of ourselves.

Here’s how Rich’s 3DMe turned out! You can try making one yourself, right from home by visiting http://cubify.com/.
