I heard that since sram cells are larger (6 transistors actually, 4 for the latch and 2 for select), on very large chips the bus capacitance overwhelms the advantage given by faster sensing.
If your PCBs don't have to be overly professional looking, or have too fine of traces, I've heard you can make the toner transfer method consistent and reliable by modifying a laminator to be wide enough to accept a board. You might be able to cut out pieces of tape, stick them on and then spray on some sort of high temperature silicone sealant for solder mask.
I don't think the electronics would be so much of an issue as the motors. If you just made the milling stage really slow so that there wasn't much force applied, it would probably work just fine. Since most of the bulk is extruded, and milling is just used for finishing, it probably wouldn't increase the fabbing time too much.
Watching the Cricut ad on youtube reminds me of the story where someone bought a photo printer without a computer or camera, thinking you just pressed the button and it made pretty pictures.

Cube requires more video ram than Wolf3D requires video ram, main ram, hard disk space and the disks it came on combined.
You know they only carry missiles right? so if it sees someone try to mug you, it blows you both up?
Money? No, no, no, it's oil they're trying to get out of Iraq.
Don't be ridiculous, they bailed themselves out. They just used your money.
do you use them on the MS rep?
So if someone sold you a car, and it turned out to be a bike, you wouldn't be mad?
Thanks for your reply. That thing is nifty.

Your Thinking of SDRAM, which is pretty much synonymous with DRAM these days.
Yeah, invade Brittan because a US oil company is drilling for oil...
Hell, I'm surprised you don't know how to build a nuke.
and in this case, infinitely more.
Wait, you think jury nullification is a bad thing?
...but some animals are more equal than others.
Maybe at first, but the future is going to happen; and they will be left behind.
More so than you'd think
Are these the tests of some sort of genetic trolling algorithm?

OT: what capabilities does this thing have? That seems like a lot of large devices to control 24 LEDs.
I'm no grammaticist, but I think you just implied that watching child porn is worse than actually raping children.
What's faster? an i7 or 500,000 3GHz 4004s?
It's more like you thought the safest place to record your audio diary was the outgoing message on your answering machine.
if you heat it hot and fast enough, the explosion of vapourized material will impart kinetic energy on the object.
