Saw a 3D printer in action for the first time: The video with “Kenny” is a real hit on TikTok. (Source: Screenshot TikTok)
- The 79-year-old veteran “Kenny” is shown a 3D printer by a young man.
- The old man is fascinated by the possibility of being able to create anything with it.
- He even asks for an autograph from the “artist”.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s Google Maps, laser vacuum cleaners or taxis taking off vertically into the sky: it’s good to just realize what crazy times we live in. 3D printing also fascinates people all over the world every day. After all, entire e-bike frames are already being created using the 3D printing process.
Young Sam demonstrates the 3D printer to the veteran in his workshop. Kenny has never seen such a contraption before. The initial skepticism quickly turns into pure enthusiasm when Kenny realizes what the thing is capable of.
Fascinated by the small figurines that he is holding in his hands, Kenny asks the young man if he can buy these figurines from him. When Sam says no and says he’s welcome to keep it, the material value is only two cents anyway, the old man almost bursts into tears. Then please let Sam at least sign the little figures!
The short TikTok video ends with a shot of the man sitting in the back seat of a car. He still holds the 3D-printed figures in his hands like precious treasures.
