Abstract
Additive manufacturing apparatus, along with methods of forming an object therewith, are provided. The additive manufacturing apparatus may include at least one build unit; a build platform (such as a rotating build platform); and a pair of collectors positioned on the apparatus such that a first collector contacts an outer surface of an object as it is formed on the build platform and a second collector contacts an inner surface of the object as it is formed on the build platform.
