They use SLA printing which uses a light source to harden each layer leaving no visible print layers. The resin required for this kind of printing is also very expensive, hence why the jetpack body is over 1000 dollars. You could build a big enough FDM printer that could print the entire body for less than a 1000. <a href="http://www.instructables.com/id/Vulcanus-MAX-CoreXY-Aluminum-Frame-RepRap-3D-Print/" target="_blank">Vulcanus MAX - CoreXY Aluminum Frame 3D Printer Scale UP</a>.
