3Doodler becomes the World's First 3D Pen

[hall4cy]

The gang over at WoobleWorks have created the world’s first 3D pen. By heating a specially design plastic through a drawing pen, you are able to do sketches that quickly cool and create a 3D object.

Thats actually pretty cool if it works that well in the field :yes:

I design toys and clothes and this would have some value to me for rough sketches, maybe use it a bit along with some pencil sketches before hitting the computer or clay modeling.

It's something I'd probably use if it were cheap, but if it cost a lot I don't need it and would rather spend department resources on other big $ items. The time I'd use it the most is in meetings, I'm always drawing something quick on paper while we're talking, not sure if making one of these little 3d sketches would be obnoxious or distracting in that setting.
