From 3D Printers for Peace Contest Page:
Deadline for submitting entries: September 1, 2013
3D printing is being condemned in the media because of the potential for printing guns. We believe there is far more potential for 3D printers to make our lives better rather than killing one another. To encourage thinking about constructive uses of 3D printing technology Michigan Tech Open Sustainability Technology (MOST) Lab and Type A Machines is proud to sponsor the first 3-D Printers for Peace Contest.
Entry Guidelines can be found at:
