:03:06. > :03:07.cafe has opened in Shoreditch. Its aim is to allow people to turn

:03:08. > :03:11.their design ideas into a reality. It's the idea of a former student

:03:12. > :03:23.from St Martin's College of Art and At first glance, this trendy new

:03:24. > :03:29.cafe looks like any other opening in London, until you spot the 3D

:03:30. > :03:31.printer in the window. They can bring their own ideas, a sketch, a

:03:32. > :03:37.bring their own ideas, a sketch a 3D design on a computer, and we make

:03:38. > :03:41.things happen. We turned those files into physical objects. 3D printing

:03:42. > :03:45.is popular with big manufacturing firms because it is so efficient.

:03:46. > :03:48.Once you have finished your design on the computer, the printer takes

:03:49. > :03:54.the image, split it into thousands of layers, and then builds them on

:03:55. > :03:57.top of each other. Here are some of the things you can get made using

:03:58. > :04:03.the 3D printer. If you want a miniature version of this statue in

:04:04. > :04:08.Dubai, that will take to and half hours. If you want to get yourself

:04:09. > :04:12.3D scanned, you can get a miniature version if you hours later. At

:04:13. > :04:18.around ?1 a minute, the costs can add up, but there is quicker laser

:04:19. > :04:25.technology on site. I can look at an idea and say what will work. My

:04:26. > :04:30.customers will like this. I can look at the detail and see it happening.

:04:31. > :04:35.It cuts out lots of chains of manufacturing. And that will be

:04:36. > :04:39.welcomed by small businesses. The next step to turning this idea into
