   You know, I don't recommend a Form 3 except in unusual circumstances. It's labor intensive, messy, and expensive . The resin itself is expensive, but then you also have to buy expensive new resin trays frequently because they wea

   Yeah, good question. My first attempts were with fluids: water and air. Water doesn't work very well because there's a lot of resistance to flow unless the pipes are large in diameter. It's not practical for anything but the

   Yup. I actually tried making an analog of electronics with water and air first. Water didn't work very well because of the high resistance. Air didn't work very well because of it's compressibility - each time it compresses a

   For sure - at least with the parts in their current form. A simple flip-flop takes up a minimum space of about 30 cm x 30 cm. But I wonder how small these parts could get. Like, what if spintronics was invented in the 19th century instead o
