[PLUG] MakerBot at Hive76!

[Jordan Miller <jsmiller@seas.upenn.edu>]

Hey PLUG!

I'm new to PLUG from Hive76.org ... just wanted to keep you in the  
loop about MakerBot CupCake CNC -- the open source software and open  
source hardware plastic extruder 3D printer extraordinaire. We'll be  
getting our very own MakerBot very soon for residence at Hive76.org  
(**please contribute here if you're so inclined: http://bit.ly/ 
MakerBot **)

And we'll have a class on MakerBot most likely on Saturday Sept. 19th  
at http://www.Hive76.org

Really excited to join the PLUG group here and looking forward to  
making awesome things together.

Who will print a 3D Tux? Let's be the first to figure out how to print  
2-colors objects (we'll have white and black ABS plastic available)...  
custom computer mods also come to mind. Check out what has already  
been printed, and what is definitely printable at: http://www.thingiverse.com/ 
  (run by the same people that developed the MakerBot!)

Jordan
