New York artist creates life-like motorcycle by 3D printing

Jonathan Brand, a New York artist, has completed a life-size model of his dream bike, a 1972 Honda CB500 motorcycle, by using an open source 3D printer of Ultimaker.

To maintain the bike‘s transparency, Brand had to make sure that each individual piece was kept to an extremely thin one-millimeter depth.

The bike was totally made from the environmental-friendly material – 18 rolls of biodegradable corn plastic weighing less than 20kg.
