These things are just incredible. They are created using a 3D printing technique called Direct-metal printing, which essentially creates layers of metal powder fused on top of each other until the shape is created. Imagine if you just kept printing with your ink jet printer over and over until the ink built into an object, and you have the general idea.

So if you are going to get me a birthday present, it needs to be one of these… just put in the order at Bathsheba Sculpture and have it shipped to me. =)
