The Economist - Print me a Stradivarius

The recent article in The Economist discusses the impact of 3D printing technologies on the manufacturing industry. The printed Stradivarius was made in a fabricator of the same family as D2W's own SLS machine, supplied by EOS.

A related article explores rapid manufacturing and the changes that will be seen with this more available access to the technology - 'Three-dimensional printing from digital designs will transform manufacturing and allow more people to start making things.' Exactly.
