A 3D Lego Fabricator Made of Lego

eldavojohn writes "Making a Lego printer is pretty cool if you've never seen The LegoMakerBot. The creator has instructions on his site on how to make (out of Lego bricks) a machine that 'prints' Lego models — much like a 3D fabrication machine — after you model them in MLCad. The sped up video is nothing short of impressive."

    Slow down. He made a pick-and-place machine out of legos, and you're up to time travel and nanobots. It's nifty, but we're not really in the Hawking realm here.
