Show Notes:
- Topic 1 - Background and what is Lulzbot?
- Topic 2 - I understand open source software, but what is open source hardware?
- Topic 3 - Help us understand the scale of 3D printing - when is it desktop vs. “industrial”, and what types of projects fit in either category?
- Topic 4 - Help us understand the economics of 3D printing? What is it better than today and when does it become better than for other things in the future?
- Topic 5 - There is this thing called “Maker Movement” and “Maker Faire”. What are these events and how does this align to open source communities?
- Topic 6 - Big Question - We’re at the end of election season, which means people are talking about jobs. The US has lost a lot of manufacturing jobs over the last couple decades. Is 3D printing something that could help reverse this trend, since it involves more technology?
