2. Getting practical Tweet: @eliasmeer
..Not the croaking, but the flying of the mallard, does a flock of ducks fly and follow.. -Chinese proverb
Networking, inspiring people and 3Dprinting:
Answering the question thateverybody asked me…
What it is?! (for me)
Target audience:Anyone who is interested.(zero skills required)

2. Getting practical
Using the book as starting point to get 3D-printing orders
Finding “General Public”:- regular media - social media- magazines
GenericTechSocial/GreenCreative sector
- presentations

3. Finding customers
Fact #1:
There are many groups already searching for solutions..
Examples:Fisher-clubsCreative magazinesDoll HousesCreate your own FashionGardening Etc…

3. Finding customers
Fact #2:
There are many groups already quite far in the technology!
Examples:RC/ModelingCar-fanatics
(some clubs have their own CAD-courses..)
Feeling that we've been here before..
Looking back in the 90-ties: the Internet.Seems that we're starting the adaption again.
Very high potential... look at the @DDW13
(solutions never before imagined)
Bonus:+ infrastructure+ social / community+ technology

4. Starting again
Current situation (2013-Q4)
- many undiscovered groups are quite far with 3D-printing (hobby related - spreading!)
- more content is added every day
- 3D-tooling gets easier
- many areas are affected (fashion, tech, hobby, DIY, food, new business, ...)
- economical situation “invites” innovation
- potentially big shift expected. (retail / logistics) (disruptive?)

Enrico Dini: (2013)"Stampare in 3D. Mai la distanza fra Pensare e Fare e' stata tanto breve.“
(never before was the distance between thinking and doing this small)
Breaking through now…
Next steps…Getting the Kill App for 3D-printing.Let the Crowd will discover what the most popular application will be.Let's get the Crowd close to 3D-printing.
We are now riding the wave of 3D-printingAn easy manual is now available.
We are waiting for the spark.
