THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDED MARCH 29, 1996 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDED
MARCH 31, 1995.

The Company recorded net income of $ 1,121,243 or $.10 per share on total sales
of $19,166,564 for the three month period ended March 29, 1996 (the "first
quarter of 1996") compared to net income of $1,330,996 or $.14 per share on
total sales of $13,618,371 during the three month period ended March 31, 1995
(the "first quarter of 1995").

Product sales during the first quarter of 1996 increased $4.6 million to $13.7
million, compared to $9.1 million during the first quarter of 1995, an increase
of 51%.  The increase was primarily the result of increased shipments of SLA
systems in the U.S., which management believes is the result of increased
participation by independent sales agents in domestic sales of SLA systems as
well as increased acceptance by industry of rapid prototyping equipment and
technology.  The Company sold a total of 40 SLA systems in the first quarter of
1996 compared to 26 in the first quarter of 1995.  Of the 14 additional systems
shipped in the first quarter of 1996, 12 were SLA-500's, the Company's largest
and highest priced system. The Company believes that SLA system sales may
fluctuate on a quarterly basis as a result of a number of factors, including the
status of world economic conditions, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange
rates and the timing of product shipments (the U.S. list price of an SLA-500,
for example, exceeds $400,000; thus the acceleration or delay of a small number
of shipments from one quarter to another can significantly affect the results of
operations for the quarters involved). 

During 1996, there are several other factors which may impact quarterly sales.
During 1996, the Company will commence shipments of two new products -- the 
low-priced Actua 2100 office modeler (which uses a technology completely 
different from stereolithography), designed for operation in engineering and 
design offices, and the SLA-350 Series 10, a new, advanced SLA system.  The 
possibility exists that the introduction of these new products may cause 
potential customers of the Company who were considering the purchase of 
one of the Company's current models to defer their purchase decision until 
further information is available as to the performance and reliability of 
the new products.  Delays in shipments of new products may also occur as a 
result of unexpected problems encountered in development, production or actual 
use.  In addition, the Company will be relocating its manufacturing operations 
to Colorado during the summer of 1996. If the Company experiences problems in 
connection with this relocation (including difficulties in the timely hiring 
and training of new employees), shipment of certain of the Company's 
products may be delayed.
 
Service sales during the first quarter of 1996 increased $946,654 or 21%
compared to the first quarter of 1995, primarily as a result of increased
maintenance revenues due to the larger installed base of SLA systems in the U.S.
and Europe. 

Product cost of sales as a percentage of product sales increased to 45% during
the first quarter of 1996 compared to 42% during the first quarter of 1995.  The
increase in 1996 was primarily the result of an increase in commission payments
to independent sales agents as a result of a greater portion of domestic SLA
system sales occurring through agents in 1996 compared to the first quarter of
1995.  This increase was partially offset by increased manufacturing
efficiencies due to the higher level of production of SLA systems in 1996.  The
Company's gross profit margins on product sales are affected by several factors
including, among others, sales mix, distribution channels and fluctuations in
foreign currency exchange rates and, therefore, may vary in future periods from
those experienced in the first quarter of 1996.  In particular, the Company
anticipates that the gross margins related to its newly-introduced Actua 2100
system will be lower than margins on its SLA systems, and, if revenues from the
sales of Actua 2100s represent a material portion of the Company's product
sales, gross margins from product sales would be reduced.  Additionally, the
Company anticipates that gross margins related to the Actua 2100 will be lower
during the initial phases of production as a result of certain inefficiencies
and anticipates, in the event of increased production, that Actua 2100 gross
margins could increase as a result of lower per unit material costs (due to
greater purchasing economies) and increased manufacturing efficiencies.

             Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                        and Results of Operations (Continued)

Service cost of sales as a percentage of service sales increased to 64% during
the first quarter of 1996 from 59% during the first quarter of 1995, primarily
as a result of lower sales of SLA system upgrades in 1996 as well as lower
margins on those SLA upgrades offered in the first quarter of 1996 compared to
those sold in the first quarter of 1995.  Additionally, various other expenses
related to field service operations were generally higher in 1996.  Margins from
the Company's U.S. Technology Center in the first quarter of 1996 were also
lower due to the increased use of outside vendors.

Selling, general and administrative ("S,G&A") expenses for the first quarter of
1996 were 32.4% of sales compared to 31.5% in the first quarter of 1995. S,G&A
expenses increased $1.9 million or 45% in 1996 compared to the first quarter of
1995, primarily as a result of expanded sales and marketing programs in both the
U.S. and Europe and a build up of sales and marketing support personnel in
Europe which occurred during the second half of 1995.  The Company currently
anticipates that if its revenues continue to grow, S,G&A expenses as a
percentage of total sales in the current year should begin to decline, primarily
as a result of economies of scale.  However, this is a forward looking statement
and as with other such statements is subject to uncertainties.  For example, if
sales do not continue to grow over the period, or if the Company determines that
it is appropriate to expand its sales and marketing efforts relating to its
Actua 2100 over planned levels, it is less likely that S,G&A expenses as a
percentage of total sales would significantly decline.

Research and development ("R&D") expenses during the first quarter of 1996
increased $348,296 or 24% compared to the first quarter of 1995. The increase in
R&D expenses in 1996 was primarily the result of the Company's efforts towards
the development of the Actua 2100 and the SLA-350 Series 10, both of which were
commercially introduced during January 1996 and shipments of which are expected
to commence later this year.  Based on the Company's historical expenditures
related to research and development and its current development goals, the
Company anticipates for the foreseeable future, research and development
expenses will be equal to approximately ten percent of sales.  However, this is
a forward-looking statement and, as with any such statement, is subject to
uncertainties.  For example, if total sales of the Company for any particular
period do not meet the anticipated sales of the Company for that period,
research and development expenses as a percentage of sales may exceed 10%.

Interest income increased to $455,517 during the first quarter of 1996 compared
to $75,332 during the first quarter of 1995, primarily as a result of the
investment of funds from the Company's stock offering which was completed in
June 1995.

Interest expense decreased to $6,340 during the first quarter of 1996 from
$14,575 in the first quarter of 1995 primarily as a result of the elimination of
commitment fees associated with the Company's bank line of credit in 1996 and
lower imputed interest amortization due to the lower balance of severance
obligations in 1996 compared to the first quarter of 1995.

For the first quarter of 1996, the Company's tax rate was 42% of pre-tax income
compared to 6% for the first quarter of 1995. The low tax rate in the first
quarter of 1995 was primarily due to the utilization of net operating loss
carryforwards. During the third quarter of 1995, the Company realized a net
income tax benefit of $2.9 million which included a deferred tax benefit
resulting from the recognition of deferred tax assets of $3 million (related
primarily to the remainder of net operating loss carryforwards attributable to
the Company's domestic operations). The Company's anticipated tax rate for the
remainder of 1996 is expected to approximate 42%.

(1)  Includes $766,000 and $746,000 of restricted cash at December 31, 1995 and
March 29, 1996, respectively.



Net cash used for operating activities during the first quarter of 1996 was $1.1
million.  The negative cash flow from operations during the first quarter of
1996, comprised primarily of an increase in inventory ($1.7 million) (as a
result of increased production) and decreases in accounts payable ($1.7 million)
and accrued liabilities ($.8 million), was partially offset by net income ($1.1
million), non cash depreciation and amortization ($.7 million), a decrease in
accounts receivable ($.6 million) and a decrease in deferred tax assets ($.8
million). 

Net cash used for investing activities during the first quarter of 1996 totaled
$3.3 million and was primarily a result of construction expenditures related to
the Company's Grand Junction, Colorado facility ($1.6 million) and SLA equipment
manufactured for use as demonstration equipment ($1 million).

Net cash used for financing activities during the first quarter of 1996
($111,861) was the result of the exercise of stock options by employees.

The Company believes that funds generated from operations, existing working
capital and its current line of credit will be sufficient to satisfy its
anticipated operating requirements for at least the next twelve months.

April 11, 1996

Mr. Mark R. Bell
1513 Sunmeytown Pike
Gwynedd, PA 19436


Dear Mark:


As discussed by telephone this morning, we are pleased to offer you the position
of Corporate Vice President, U.S. Sales, effective April 15, 1996, reporting to
the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.


    1. Your base annual salary will be $140,000.

    2. You will qualify for an annual incentive compensation of up to $100,000
       based on your performance. Performance measurement criteria will consist
       of (1) bookings and (2) sales expenses compared to a plan, which you and
       I will develop together for the remaining three quarters of 1996 and,
       thereafter, on a fiscal year basis. Please understand that compensation
       of officers--including incentive plans--is subject to review, approval
       and modification by the Board's Compensation Committee.

    3. You will be granted an option to purchase 25,000 shares of 3D Systems
       common stock. The option will vest over a four-year period, 25% on each
       anniversary of the date of grant, with an exercise price equal to the
       closing price on April 15, 1996. There are two conditions concerning the
       stock option: (1) its final approval by the Compensation Committee of
       the Board of Directors and (2) approval by the company's shareholders of
       a new stock option plan, under which your option is to be granted, which
       will be voted on at the next shareholders meeting on May 22, 1996.

    4. Your work location will be the corporate headquarters in Valencia,
       California. You will be offered assistance in moving your family and
       household

       effects to the Valencia area. A description of the relocation assistance
       package is enclosed.

    5. Your employment will be on an "at-will" basis. Should the company
       terminate your employment without just cause, you will be entitled to a
       severance benefit equal to six-months' base salary, provided that you
       execute a release agreement acceptable to the company. Of course, your
       employment may be terminated with just cause at any time without
       severance benefit.


    6. We will require your execution of the enclosed Employee Agreement
       Regarding Confidentiality, Noncompetition, Inventions and Trade Secrets.

Mark, on behalf of the directors and officers of the Company, I welcome you to
the executive team and look forward to your contributions to maximizing 3D's
prosperity over the coming years.


Sincerely,



Arthur B. Sims
