I am calling shenanigans on it being the most complex 3D printed part ever. That's just marketing hype.

Nice design though. Very clever use of 3D capabilities.
Does seem cool, but I believe there are rocket motor parts being printed as assemblies of dissimilar parts. Not sure if they are flying parts or just R&D parts, but I believe I've been told that. Tolerances, fits, dissimilar materials, no bolts. . . wow.

This thing looks very cool though. Hopefully it can be demonstrated as a functional/useful thing.

Sandy.
