Do you want to build parts with different materials in the same machine?

Most 3d printers support a wide range of a materials, you just have to change out the materials in the machine. Usually you have different colors, different plastics, strong plastics, flexible plastics, fire retardent plastics, 2-step metals, clear plastics, etc.

But if you want to print different materials in the same print you want an Objet. It's a 3d printer that can print in different materials, rigid, opaque, transparent, rubbery and mixtures there of. Which is pretty frickin' awesome Pic related was made on an Objet. Objet's are pretty expensive though.

Currently, I'm trying to get my boss to get one.
see how awesome they are here:
