It's Thursday, so you're probably thinking energy, but no, you're wrong.

Don't worry folks though, you're in the right place because this is where the money is.

I'm Allison Southwick and normally being Thursday we would talk about energy but

instead today I've got Simon Ericsson he's our resident 3D printing expert and

he's going to give us an update on the and how are you doing lately

lately son?

So how are you doing lately son? Well, so have you done where the money is before?

We have, yes, a lot of times for health care actually.

where are we today with 3D printing, particularly the big guys.

Let's talk about like X1, Stratocysts, 3D systems.

Where are these guys right now in their strategy?

Yeah, so 3D printing has come so far. It used to be really focused on industrial

applications stuff like that but the thing that seems to be the color of the

day right now is production service centers and this is kind of like the Kinko's model,

And X1 has really brought this a long way.

These guys are kind of famous.

They built eight production service centers
