The future meets that past right here on the CoCo list. Wow. I have been keeping my eye (loosely) on that tech. One of the chains (Staples?) is putting them in stores (outside the USA?) so you could upload a design and have it printed and go pick it up. I can't wait for that to hit local. Then one day, have my own. Specifically for things like this.

Keep us posted! I'd love to see pics of something for the CoCo made on a 3D printer.

Heck, build your own Allen, then offer services to the locals!! Can't find it now, but I saw a page that listed parts prices, was around $400.
