I present to you a jet turbine blade, it has a weird S-shaped channel in it that's really difficult to make. Just making molds requires a huge number of steps.

Except not any more. 3d printers have been demonstrated capable of printing the mold in one step.

Now on cutting tools, we can print tungsten carbide. We're also getting to the point where we can print tungsten carbide here and steel there and go between them, so tools are less resistant to fracture. It's just not worth it right now.
