In this episode, we explore how 3D printing works and how it creates objects layer by layer using materials like plastic, metal, or rubber. We learn how plastic is made and how 3D printing is revolutionizing toy design by allowing for custom-made creations. Finally, we discover how 3D printing is changing medicine, from prosthetics to potential organ creation, helping doctors and patients around the world. 3D printing is transforming industries, making production faster, more creative, and more accessible!
