Teeny tiny Tower Bridge: 3D-nanoprinting creates objects as small as a GRAIN OF SAND (but maintains attention to detail)

Making complex, large 3D structures would normally take hours or even days to perfect.

But researchers from the Vienna University of Technology have speeded that up - considerably - and produced grain-of-sand sized objects such as bridges, cathedrals and Formula 1 cars.

It is thought that the world record for producing the nano-objects in the quickest time has been smashed.
