MLB - who wins AL MVP? - Will Hunting Sep 26, 10:05 11

- Nice! -- nm - JD Sep 26, 09:49

- ... with all the advancement in 3D printing, I wonder if it would ever be possible to print glass? - Beryllium Sep 26, 09:08 2
  - It will be definitely possible. Cost efficient? I don't know -- nm - crash davis Sep 26, 09:16 1
    - My main concern is that it would probably have streaks and not be usable for windows ... but maybe a special window printer exists - Beryllium Sep 26, 09:25
