has the Xerox ElemX aluminum 3d printer been shared here yet? I don’t recall seeing it, and it didn’t turn up in search. I only heard about it because a buddy produced this video and posted it to his linkdIn.

I have seen quite a few done as public relations efforts showing off what was actually loaded onto a plane though usually not a direct overhead shot.

Seeing the armament laid out brought this image to mind. A little military humor … Hoo-Rah!
