HaveBlue didn't just print 3D rifle components, he also wanted to see whether 3D sharing sites like MakerBot's Thingiverse would object to him posting his weapon designs online for all to download. Naturally, MakerBot said it was frowned upon, but didn't disallow HaveBlue from doing so, so he tossed it up. MakerBot responded by banning the sharing of weapons designs.

So, is it only a matter of time before laws regulate what can and can't be printed at home?
