Build Your Own CNC Router, CNC Machine, or 3D Printer
.. here you go. Cheap as they come and you can build them from spare parts in your home. that is if you have spare printers laying about.
ive only just heard about these 3d printed weapons on the channel 24 news today the 31-10-2022
There are metal filaments with steel and wax that can become filly solid by burning away the wax. But then you might as well just use a traditional CNC router for $200 and drill it out from thicker aluminium with subtractive manufacturing. People can also just buy their weapons on Aliexpress, which sells military rifle parts, robber masks, rape drugs (with a super creepy ad), camoflage nets, bulletproof wests (if you trust it), terror group insignias, combat knives, maces...The only thing that I don't like about this, and bear with me, is the current strength of the printable synthetics. This will of course be overcome in just a few years, but at the moment, a printed rifle receiver is nothing compared to a forged receiver. Even a stamped or cast poured receiver will never compare to the strength of forging. Perhaps we will see someone take these synthetics to the next step by supplying them with a curable compound that hardens after baking much in the way that clay turns into ceramics.
