 Interestingly enough, 3D printing may have come in the nick of time to offer a viable alternative to the all-digital iterations using Vassal and the like. Since 3D printing is much cheaper after the initial cost of getting the printer and you can print stuff for your friends who are interested in the hobby plus your local community, it is now much easier and viable to have a true flash-and-plastic matches at your local store (or garage/basement/attic) and thus there is not so much need for going on the internet to search for buddies to play with. This of course does not apply to everybody but should help to propagate the hobby far more than was previously possible, or imaginable.

 '''Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)'''
-FDM is a common desktop 3D printing technology for plastic parts. An FDM printer functions by extruding a plastic filament layer-by-layer onto the build platform. It’s <s>stinky</s> (just use PLA) but a cost-effective (up to 30 times cheaper than [[Games Workshop|GW]]) and relatively quick method for producing physical models. This is best for creating [[Citadel Hard Foam Terrain|terrain]] or larger models. [[Image:Ender3.jpg|thumb|Costs a fraction of a titan and will make you one]]

	3D Printing is the catch-all term for use of a specialized printer that is fed some form of plastic or other, similar malleable material to turn into a three dimensional object via use of a computer that has a renderable 3D file. The technology was first described in a sci-fi story in the forties, and has since become not only science fact, but a commercial success. Prior to the 2000's, it was mostly only ever used in an industrial capacity, up until 1988 when the company Stratasys came up with the concept of Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) printing, which brought the complex process to the consumer grade market for a hefty, Forge World-esque price right up until 2009, when process became public domain, and as a result, more and more companies and builders could get in on the process, making the process still yet far more accessible than ever before. By now, a former $2000 printer may only cost as much as a new video game console.		3D Printing is the catch-all term for use of a specialized printer that is fed some form of plastic or other, similar malleable material to turn into a three dimensional object via use of a computer that has a renderable 3D file.

	The accessibility of printer technology, continued availability and sharing of 3d Modeling files, and the complete boredom of lock-downs thanks to the 2020 pandemic has created a boom in 3d printer use for table-top gaming. This is assuming of course you buy your own, and don't just cheap out the work to a company that specializes in 3D printing, like Shapeways.
