PLASTIC FANTASTIC
3D technology – it's all child's play
During a recent family game of "Monopoly", there was much dismay when it was discovered that one plastic token was missing. Where could it be? No one had a clue. Turning the box upside down did not produce it, a look inside the vacuum cleaner bag also failed to turn it up. What to do? Start a new game? Considering that everything had already been set up, that was clearly not an option.

Nonchalantly, the youngest player seated at the table says, “Why look when you can just print a new one? If my ThingMaker can help me create a three-dimensional flower bulb for school, that should be a piece of cake… And, while we’re at it, I’d like my hotels to be larger, and purple.”
