Holy smokes Forbes provides a painful reading experience. Here's a post about the same study from the American Chemical Society -- http://cen.acs.org/articles/93/web/2015/11/3-D-Printed-Parts-Leach.html http://cen.acs.org/articles/93/web/2015/11/3-D-Printed-Parts... tl;dr, the study found the stereolithography printing[0] method to be harmful, and less so for fused deposition modeling[1]. Many of the 3d printers you'll find around community-level makerspaces employ fused deposition modeling (those that melt plastic filament, as opposed to those that use liquid plastic).
