Re: 3D Printer..... that's right!

There is a local company that's called TRW Automotive that has a 3d printer. They use it to make multiple different types of automotive products. I use to work for them a few years back when they first came out with the rain sensors in Chrysler vehicles. Pretty neat stuff to see how everything is made and how it works. Pretty much anything that has to do with the heater, A/C or venting system inside the car, along with all the controls on the dash/steering column in all newer Chrysler vehicles pretty much come from TRW. I'm sure they have expanded to other vehicle makes but I know for sure they worked with Chrysler for awhile.
