[PLUG] DIY Fabrication

["Eric H. Johnson" <ejohnson@camalytics.com>]

Hi all,

Coincidentally relative to the next talk at North on Tuesday and again next
month at West comes the following article via Slashdot:

http://hardware.slashdot.org/story/10/12/10/1810252/Cheap-3D-Fab-Could-Start
-an-Innovation-Renaissance?from=rss
and 
http://radar.oreilly.com/2010/12/diy-fabrication-hits-a-new-pri.html

I would point out however that both fab@home (http://www.fabathome.org/) and
reprap (http://www.reprap.org/wiki/Main_Page) are already at similar price
points and either currently or in the next version will support both fabbing
(adding material) and milling (removing material). 

Regards,
Eric
