    MANILA, Philippines — For the past couple of weeks, there were rumors on social media that CD-R King will make available 3D printers for the local market.

    Upon checking their website today, the rumors are now true — 3D printing technology has arrived at CD-R King, the popular store for disposable gadgets. Unfortunately, it’s not cheap.

    It is said that 3D printers will be the next “must-have” consumer device and was even predicted earlier that it will “transform our lives in the coming decades as dramatically as the Internet did before it.”

    Right now, 3D printers can make gun parts, small car parts, other replacement parts or even works of art. In medicine, it can “bio-print” replacement kidneys and prosthetics. The possibilities are endless.

    Although 3D printing has been available for several years now on the industrial level (with prices over $100,000), it is only recently that the technology is slowly penetrating the consumer market as costs steadily go down.

    Here are sample videos on how 3D printers work (take note: the machines used are different from what CD-R King is selling, particularly the one from Sculpteo.com, which is an industrial-grade 3D printer. But you’ll get the idea):
