[TheForge] 3D printers

[Richardson, Grover]

Note- no one has said anything about rfi/emi from the induction coil heaters.  The coil is an antenna.  Yes, the metal inside gets most of the power, but a coil radiates pretty well outside of the coil as well.   I worry.  Nearby electronic watchs, cell phones, could easily be overwhelmed<G>.   Has anyone done measurements of fields nearby?  We use mu-metal to shield ourselves from stray fields of high intensity.

I suspect it warped both our thinking and would bet blacksmiths are over represented in it's ranks.
As an old guy, it makes it easier to deal with the roar of new tech.
Speaking of that. Gene Olsen brought one of the induction forges that Grant S first introduced, to the Western States Conference. Sure is nifty...Fast, concentrated heat! 
The price and cooling package is coming within reach and the unit is now more portable and compact.
I want one!

I was picturing just that, only the trucks are self driven and sent to the site by computer.  Flat lot to finished building before the first Organic shows up.

Maybe I read too much sci-fi. Then again maybe not.
