Shapeways yesterday announced support for yet another awesome material: ceramics. Ceramics is a particularly cool because it it is food safe and thus unlocks the market for 3D printed dishwares. That includes my admittedly fairly lame chop stick holders, which I have immediately re-ordered in ceramics (also turns out that the first go around I made them too small).
Of course, I also expect to see some fantastic sculptures in ceramics, as well as other art and fashion uses of the material. Joanne has a great post about jewelry making on Shapeways on her Gotham Gal blog today. There is also a NY Times blog post about the introduction of ceramics.
Congrats to the Shapeways team on this exciting news!
