B3D 001: TJ McCue – If 3D data is so valuable, why isn't everyone using it?
TJ has over 25 years of experience as a beta tester, analyst, and researcher/writer on technology companies and their products. He has long been involved in hardware and software at various levels.
His interest in 3D printing led him to join the team that organized the first Maker Faire in Washington State. Based on this experience, he began writing for major publications on 3D printing.
In 2014, he completed a 48-state trip in an RV he called a 3DRV, studying and reporting on what people and companies are doing with 3D technology and the changes the technology is bringing. He had in-depth conversations with thought leaders at companies like GE, Ford, Smithsonian, and NASA, as well as individual craftspeople.
