A 3D-printed shape that's 5% the density of steel and 10 times the strength http://www.wired.co.uk/article/3d-printed-graphene-structure-stronger-than-steel … this is SO coolpic.twitter.com/T675zmJ9YA
(although I think maybe this comparison is doing some tricks as steel's strength is not in compression)

what if the print were made in steel itself?
-
I believe the strength is due to the new material properties. Steel can be printed — it is not the strongest steel.

oh! the pink made me think it was traditional fdm with the pattern being its novelty. Fused graphene is pretty rad
