G, would you be able to do that honeycomb interior with a cast part?

In the video of the dropouts he specifically claims that they couldnt have made those dropouts any other way and yet that is rubbish. You could investment cast them for a relatively low tool cost.

i clicked on this topic specifically to see the rant that i knew you would put in here.  You dont know that for a fact, that is speculation.  Just because you have some sort of cut rate 3-d printer at home doesnt make you any kind of expert in the field, nor does reading about it in forums or internet articles.  Any time i see a topic about something new that you are doing it is you talking about how it is the best thing around and every time i see a topic about a new process that you didnt adopt it is bashed on or questioned.  get over yourself.

You don't have to be an expert in the field of 3D printing to know about casting do you... Unless there is something crazy inside those dropouts they're not showing, they would be very simple to cast.

edit: Also, those massive chinese aircraft parts are crazy, it's cool to see people pushing the boundaries of real uses for 3D printing rather than just making funky shaped small parts.
