I even have a space and power drop set aside in the garage/shop for "future CNC machine/lathe/etc".

I would never expect something like this to do anywhere near half of what you could or would do in a single piece...and certainly not for production...but I thought it interesting nonetheless and had to share...

I need some new brackets for my fence as some of the vinyl ones cracked. With that I could make them all from chinesium or some other precious metal.
Here is a different article that mentions probable cost at $3000.00. Less than I expected............

LEGObot 3D Printer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IsR-GGL8-g#)
Someday when I get bored with my current list of hobbies I will buy or build a 3D printer for my shop.
