Today I learned that if you have enough money you can print anything in 3d including titanium rocket fuel tank nose cones...

Today I learned (in reference to the DOOB video above) that due to the pandemic the parent company has permanently shut down their US operations, which is unfortunate.

At the time being, we therefore no longer offer our products and services in the USA, except for reprints of previously placed orders.

We certainly hope to someday re-enter the American market but there is currently no set timeline.

Best regards,

My friend also sent me another ad for a Toyota Corolla XSE sedan (also in FL) for $29,694. Doesn't have any of the limited edition stuff, so pretty sure it's just a regular XSE.
