You may be thinking of what is mentioned in the quote below.

"It might be hard to accept that a machine will rearrange atoms into 3D products. But there are precedents. If you go into many research and development labs, you'll find a rapid prototyping machine that can make a 3D form out of plastic powder or liquid. "

Just curious cuz I think this "fabricator" tech is brand spankin new. But hey, maybe they are using it.

Anyway, I just think this tech is very VERY cool because it potentially can even the playing field for lure designers. Once the technology is established, companies who import lures made with cheap labor could be SOL cuz it might be no more expensive to "fab" a new bait right off your own computer! And no need to wait for shipping... just in time for that big tournament.

I wonder if stock is available in that company??? $$$ }(
