Topic: What will be the new laws enforced when every home in America owns a 3D Printer?

Anonymous A started this discussion 12 years ago #35,340

You know there will be a bunch of DRM, trademark, and copyright infringement laws made.

There will probably have to be some sort of control over them. You can make a functioning gun with one of those things, for one.

Oh. So USAmerica will have to quickly pass a law allowing 3D printers to be carried concealed into schools and churches, just in case someone needs to quickly make a gun to defend themselves against minorities.

"Stay there, asshole! As soon as I find a socket for my 3D printer and it prints out those firearm components, and I assemble them, you're dead!"

They are shit compared to proper guns, yes. But they are still dangerous. They've been successfully fired, and have also exploded with use.

Yes, but I'd put my faith in a steel pipe shotgun. A compact, easily concealable "sawn off" model can be made for about $7 with standard plumbing supplies. It almost certainly won't blow your hand off, either. If you're looking for something fancier, this fellow made a gold bling edition model. Mirror shades sold separately.

The hype about "3d printed guns" is totally retarded. Homemade guns have existed for as long as guns have existed. Even if all current firearms and ammunition were banned, you could still make your own black powder and lead shot like they did in the old days. I hope to god no one in the media or government sees these videos, otherwise we'll be bombarded by impassioned screeching about the need for pipe control, with background checks and registration needed to enter the plumbing section of Home Depot.

Not that i like guns or anything, but yeah, you can make one with some basic metalworking tools. The hype around 3 printed guns is really silly.

nah, 3d printer are shit. great for prototyping stuff to be cast or made from other materials, but basically what most of them do is make plastic junk that would be better suited to other types of manufacturing.

we're not close to 3d printers being a useful household tool. also with a hunk of plastic or glass and a nice milling machine and a lathe you can make a better non-metal gun than you could ever print. also it would be faster to make.

I really want a glass gun now.

Still, said hype around it could lead to some idiots making shoddy firearms and hurting themselves.

...If nothing else, it's worth keeping an eye on.

How would eyes be kept on it, though? It's already illegal in most of the world to make firearms at home.

As in generally see how they are used (not as in direct monitoring if each and every one).

If there happens to be large number of people using them to make dangerous objects, then something should probably be done to address that.

fucking idiots 3d printing guns are gonna be one of the reasons nobody is allowed to have a 3d printer

I think the way the 3D printed guns get around that rule is that they include a piece of an actual registered weapon.
Have yet see a 3D printed gun made entirely from plastic.

you can print a 3d printer using a 3d printer of sufficient size.
