Ever wondered what it feels like to print something so tiny it makes a microchip look like a billboard?

Well, Vik Olliver is about to make your imagination even smaller! With his RepRapMicron project, he's pushing the boundaries of 3D printing to a staggering ten micrometers. That's right! We're talking needles so fine, you’d lose them in the depths of your couch cushions.

Honestly, when I can barely thread a regular needle without a magnifying glass, I can’t help but marvel (and roll my eyes) at the thought of creating structures no one can see. What’s next? Printing atoms?

Stay tuned for the future of invisibility!
