$100 3D printer, kickstarter project.

I'm quite impressed with what this guy managed to do on his own, or largely his own. He sounds like one bright bulb to be able to re-purpose tech like he did to make something like this a reality (his use of your every day sound card is particularly ingenious). I don't know about how long this would last, it seems like it might be a bit flimsy even after the investment $$ but if it works at all, wow that's quite impressive.
