How many hundreds of millions of dollars did NASA spend paying brilliant enginincompoops who were too smart to send tools along, but could spend more millions on 3D manufacturing in space.

Jay Leno has the 3D printer and he makes obsolete parts for his huge collection
of antique & classic cars right in his own garage.

check; Jay Leno's 3D printer on google.
