Additive manufacturing is the process of slicing digital blueprints into thin layers and stacking powders or resins to materialize 3D objects. It promises rapid creation of complex prototypes, yet also produces a mountain of useless test models in record time. Despite its lofty claims of freedom and customization, the workshop quickly fills with plastic debris that breaks the recyclers’ spirits. Its ideal is efficiency and personalization, but in practice it leaves a trail of trial-and-error trophies with every layer.
