How will you ever be able to
This kind of skepticism has been raised about everything, years, decades or centuries before it happens.
The very thing that makes 3D printing an interesting field is that's it's in its infancy and the long-term possibilities are unknown/unknowable.
I'm not making any predictions about what will or won't happen, but I'll be fascinated to see it unfold.
Unless they will start being able to make things out of steal, glass, rare materials, and be able to vacuum seal things
...well yes, exactly.

Yet, 30 years later those CPUs are running at 3000Mhz with multiple cores while the printers have barely advanced. The only reason you hear so much talk is the patents on early Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) units have expired. But these $1000 printers are only good for printing cheap plastic junk like this guy printed for his daughter which costs more to print and is worse quality than the stuff you can find at the local $ store.
