looks like a rotary fan at that company :D:

if you're the person who modeled it speak up :)

I wish I had a 3d printer. Those things cost a pretty penny.

ZCorp printers are complete crap, its powder held together with an ink binder, that part if it were 1/1 scale would only cost about $200, we have a Zcorp and it doesnt even get used anymore,,,

hahah and going back to the article its not even a color printer that machine is a POS...

well its still cool cuz I didnt even know those things existed lol

That's a 12A housing. The water o-ring grooves aren't a perfect radius on that piece. They are a series of straight lines.

so is the actual interior of the rotor housing.
