The "big picture" goes way beyond plastic fabrication. The real money behind "additive manufacturing" is how it will be used in large industries and government agencies. Think medical devices, which are already a huge part of the revenue (in-ear implants, prosthetics, etc), and the airline industry.
GE invested several million into 3D printers that fabricate out of metal and can make lighter parts for planes, resulting in lighter aircraft and a huge savings in fuel and manufacturing. ExOne just went public and is in this sector, and is also another potential investment for anyone taking this seriously.
The fact of the matter is, like sine, said above, "it's gonna blow up." The other fact is, it already has. It's just a matter of time before we see its real impacts. If anyone is an investor, this is the moment to get in.
