There's nothing like the perfection of 3D printing to get stuff done nicely, on the first attempt. This version of pottery works very much like 3D printing on plastic: the printer processes the objects layer per layer and can work on slices that are as thin as 0.003". The slices are nor carves out from an object, but rather built by spraying a binder and powder for each layer. The final objects don't have the same texture than traditional Ceramics, so additional work is required to make them capable of holding liquids and so on.
