This is going to take off like a rocket. It's genius.

Maybe some chemistry/materials engineer can figure out ahead of time how to take a polymerized object and convert it back to a usable resin. Really, we have to start analyzing the end product for recycle-ability before the tech explodes.

Agreed. This is more like what I want from 3D printing. The smelly ABS 3D printers were never really suitable for indoor use, but this I can see myself using!

Don't kid yourself. The photopolymer resin used here still has a noticeable odour, which is in many cases worse than ABS.

PLA filament, on the other hand, has very little odour.
