Claim 13:
14. A method of forming the 3-dimensional article in the system of claim 1, the method comprising:
(i) applying the composition by an independently controllable apparatus in an x, y work plane via at least one printing head, to an independently spatially controllable baseplate or to a shaped body affixed thereto;
(ii) allowing the composition to cure or solidify to form a layer of a cured or partially cured 3-dimensional article;
(iii) displacing the controllable apparatus and/or the shaped 3-dimensional article from step (ii) relative to each other in the z-direction far enough such that a next layer can be applied in the x, y work plane; and
(iv) repeating steps (i)-(iii) until construction of the 3-dimensional article is complete.
