American car manufacturer Ford is embracing 3D printing.

According to GigaOm, Ford is planning to give a MakerBot 3D printer to every engineer in the coming months. Reminiscent of the computer revolution, computer workstations were first provided to professionals and later adopted by the general public.

In the video below, Ford engineer Zac Nelson shows how he uses 3D printers for rapid prototyping.
