I remember seeing one of these in action way back in the early 90s at MIT when I was going to school for electro-mechanical engineering. It blew my mind back then and was one of those things I'd geek out and tell people about for years after. I'm glad to see that such an amazing concept is being made available to a wider scope of people thus enabling them to express and realize their creative visions more readily. Thanks for the great video RBTech!

I want to MakerBot an Ellie

That's because Bre got laid by Ellie here in this vid.

With a white labcoat on, "Bre" will look just like Poindexter.

Wow, Ellie really likes Bre. Note the body english, the eye movement...

When my MakerBot arrives, I'm gonna use it to make a plastic handle that installs on my eyeglasses, on top of the bridge between the lenses, to push my glasses up when they slide down my nose. Just like Navin Johnson did in the movie The Jerk... but mine will a better product !

she's sooooooooooo flirting with bre

[Gary Smith]

you can create a centrifuge with a Makerbot, but can you create a Makerbot with a centrifuge? sounds like the guy beat the system to me

[popesnose]

this guy is an evolved nerd: he didn't once push his glasses up on his nose by the bridge between the lenses.

[popesnose]

a member of a German lock-picking group, Sportsfreunde Der Sperrtechnik – Deutschland e.V., used his 3D printer to create a key to unlock handcuffs carried by the Dutch police. Startlingly, he was able to measure and reproduce the key accurately by using nothing more than a photograph of the key hanging from the belt of a police officer plus some basic math to gauge its size. Afterward, he not only printed out a copy of the key to test, but also put the model up online for anyone to print.

Bre?

A guy made a centrifuge  because he didn't have 1000 bucks to buy one. He would have had the money if he had not spent it on the makerbot!!
