My shop is looking at getting one of these 3D printers. The output quality is similar to a nice casting, and like a good casting, you can machine the relatively-rough surface and expose nice solid metal underneath. With technology like that, I'd be able to make so many things much more easily.. Just make the model, print it out, and machine only the important surfaces. Cool stuff!
