Adam Savage Stunned by 3D Printed Rubber!

Adam and Norm try their hand at 3D printing flexible rubber using the new @Formlabs Form Studio 1 3D printer. Here's how Adam plans to incorporate this material into his costume and prop builds, and what you should know about how printing rubber differs from standard hard resins. We also visit Formlabs' material science research labs to learn how they develop their resins and their advice for how to post-process prints.
