I wonder why the author chose to use the words “fully 3D printed”? I don’t think I’m being pedantic when I say that’s a very false statement.

Aside from the motors and various electrical components, including batteries to unplug mobility in operation, most parts of the AT-AT were 3D printed with a standard 3D printer
From the article as well.
are structural support parts also 3dprinted? the article is unclear on this and id be surprised if it is.
I seriously recommend this dude’s channel. He’s a total nut. https://youtube.com/@jamesbruton?si=-vYstm1KKH6myZJi
Strange it doesn't mention the structural metal skeleton keeping it all together. That's like saying my car is completely made of paint
