Very exciting to see how much the price has come down for 3d-printed metal parts. Kids have it so easy these days!

I'm eager to find a project to use this tech on...

That transverse Rotary setup is interesting.

Obviously printing with metal would be more durable but you dont even need to (especially on the intake side), people have been printing with plastic (carbon fiber infused nylon) with excellent results.

this is my next step. I was figuring I will fab a lower, and then 3d print the upper, if nothing else as a proof of concept.
