Me: What are 3d printed drugs?

FTA

He swapped out a kilogram of cocaine from evidence with a 3D-printed version, according to court documents, per the Associated Press. He sprinkled the 3D-printed brick with real cocaine so that it appeared to be real,

Oh, he printed a prop.

They gotta focus on the "3d printed" part for those sweet sweet clicks.

Why didn't anyone tell me I could 3D print my own cocaine

These atomic printers are such a hassle. I just want to print some organic compounds, but it's complaining that the copper level is low!

How do you 3d print powder?

[–] ExcessShiv@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

You don't, this guy just 3d printed a brick and sprinkled it with coke

Oh, ffs, he replaced powder with a brick? Would've been better off to cut it with talc.

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 5 points 1 hour ago

Make a sealed box with an SLS printer so it's full of the powder
