<p>There is no such thing as a 3D printer that doesn&#39;t emit concerning microparticles into the air, according to <a href="http://www.eas.gatech.edu/people/weber-dr-rodney">Rodney Weber&#39;s</a> groundbreaking study about the dangers of 3D printing. Even industrial models that appear sealed put out measurable particles.&nbsp;</p>

<p>But Weber warns us not to be too alarmed. The true danger is that the industry is currently unregulated, but the particles from 3D printer&#39;s aren&#39;t any different from the ones already floating around in the air.</p>

<p>Weber is a professor in the <a href="http://eas.gatech.edu/">School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences</a>.</p>
