Those machines are really trick and they can do amazing things but did you guy notice that the wrench "printed" by the machine did not match the wrench scanned to create the specs???
If you didn't, go back and watch again and compare the tail end of the original wrench which has a large hole with the end of the reproduction which has no hole but has a moveable ring for hanging it on a hook. Some other differences too like the pitch of the threads on the roller and the radius of the edges.
I don't know why they would create a video presentation with such a noticable discrepancy to discredit their work.
