The number of pins in such a design would dictate your surface roughness. Where would you be loading the glue from, if they're also being drawn through the binder.
Also, glue doesn't set instantaneously. I can see only problems with this approach?
- pontifier 8y agoThat is the resolution tradeoff with this particular method. Each needle would be fed from a tube connected to its own control valve. Non bound material would act as support while the glue (or other binding agent) worked. In my imagination I see a chair made from shredded tires, and bonded with a silicon caulking like substance. The shredded tires would be filled into a container between the needles as the printing array rises.
