Check out these new 3d printers made mostly from laser cut parts built by Victoria university:

Unfortunately, they don't seem to have much in the way of documentation...

Interesting stuff. I'll refrain from making any jokes about watching paint dry.

I wonder why they didn't show the Nexus machine. I found more pictures here: [madebydan.wordpress.com]

Just found last year 3d printers: [blog.ponoko.com]
[www.flickr.com]

Apparently they were able to make a polar 3d printer that did metal extrusion. They also made a 3d printer that extruded molten sugar into cold water.

From the looks of the flickr photo set, it looks like they even have a working reprap.
