We have used these things at work. They are badass. You can make awesome things with it. They can make a sphere within another sphere where the internal sphere is never touched by a human hand.

They use these things to make models for buildings / rigs / processing units etc.

Not sure that "printing" is an accurate term in this process with all of the molecular/chemical shenanigans going on... But still really cool.
