Re: Mini 18 piece Burr
It certainly was impressive to see that little burr that you printed, but 3D printing doesn't replace the craftsmanship of a hand made object. It does raise questions though about the value of a craftsman. If you can print an object for less than a master craftsman can make it, how do craftsmen survive?
Seems like the story of the record store all over again. I'm not convinced that progress is always progress. </rant>

Juggler,
That's very cool! Why move to wood when you have a great looking Lego puzzle? Are you hoping to sell these some day?
