The versatility of these devices makes them useful in a wide variety of ways. Hobbyists, find various uses for these, but many professional fields are beginning to adopt them. Some manufacturers have found these quite useful because they are able to create specialized components, which would be expensive to acquire in other ways. Other industries are beginning to use them for the novelty of the process and product. For example, [[The Hershey Company]] is beginning the process of making their kisses using 3D printers.<ref name="entrepreneur.com">https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/241596</ref><br />

Perhaps one of the more bazaar but ingenious applications of this technology is the production of human body parts. Medical researchers have found that they can use live tissue from a patient to create an artificial organ, which their immune system is very unlikely to reject, since it is composed of their own cells. Although not a common practice, this seems to offer much safer organ replacement which is available almost any time one is needed.
