"Modern Machine Shop" for June (2012) features a hot steel spray additive printer. The spray quenches as it hits the surface and is harder than normal heat treatment. The price of admission for a small unit is pretty high but is scales well; large units are not proportionally more expensive since the spray unit is pretty much the same $$ regardless of the size of the unit. Since it is a spendy process it only gets used for mold making and maybe aerospace parts.
