The vid is a little over 11 minutes... just so ya know.

All I can say is... WOW! I'm sure some of you already know or have seen this kind of stuff before but this is the first time for me of seeing stuff like this.

Paul sent me the link. One of the guys that he works with saw it and passed it along to the team.

I'm still in the WOW factor...

Heh, 3-D printing is the way of the future. If we can get the massive print-times down, it may even be a form of inanimate-object teleportation.

[Archibaldo]

Maybe not teleportation, but cloning.

It's like papercraft on steroids...

That is some fast drying concrete O_o... what happens if a wind comes along and blows the little guy off the thin ledge spilling concrete everywhere :S

Kinda creepy.... the way it moves. Simpsons definately didn't do that.
