The 3D printer is changing the world as we know it, as the price for digital fabrication technology is dropping, the footprint is shrinking, and the universe of digital models is growing.

In this presentation, Tom will talk about how 3D printing works, why open source hardware matters, and how to go from an idea to a physical object with Linux and FOSS software.
