Dear rp-world!

Just another night I couldn't sleep and I started to wonder how many
different RP-methods do we have globally (maybe I should think something
else to get sleep). I started to count and all I got was those we all know
(SLA, SLS, LOM, FDM,...). Next morning I realized that I have a horn of
plenty of rapid prototyping which I can use. So, lets try to make the
ultimate list of methods (no matter if they are commercial or
non-commercial). I hope you'll join with me.

so this is how it starts (method / firm, university, etc. http:// (or other
contact):

Stereolithography / 3D-Systems http://www.3dsystems.com/

SLS / DTM http://www.dtm-corp.com/home.htm
FDM / Stratasys http://www.stratasys.com/
Inkjet / Sanders http://www.sanders-prototype.com/index.html
LOM / Helisys http://www.helisys.com/

3DP / MIT / Z-Corp http://www.zcorp.com/
MJM / 3D-Systems http://www.3dsystems.com/

well, rest is up to you my friends. I just kicked the snowboll rolling...
