Open-Source 3D Printer Lets Users Make Anything

An anonymous reader writes "Picture a 3D inkjet printer that deposits droplets of plastic, layer by layer, gradually building up an object of any shape. Fabbers have been around for two decades, but they've always been the pricey playthings of high-tech labs — and could only use a single material. A Fab at Home kit costs around $2400 and allows users to print anything from Hors d'Oeuvres to flashlights."

    Yes.

    Am I the only one who read that as "I'm a adoloscent social awkward person who sits in his room masturbating porn while wishing he was getting laid by a *flesh*light but is too afraid to actually buy one because he come home with a flashlight while shopping for a fleshlight because of his dyslexia"?
    This brings "feeling unable and inadequate to mate" to a whole new level.
