Space/Science » in reply to surface tension

Good point . . .

I don't know, but I doubt surface tension would be enough for a solid bond between layers.

The natural bonding effect of surface tension could be further augmented, however, with a slowly rotating print chamber, at around 0.5-G or better.

A 2 meter diameter (a bit more than 6 feet) centrifuge spinning at 30 rpm, or 1 every 2 seconds, would grant a G-force just over a value of 1 gravity.

Interesting experiments will likely follow its installation.
