$200 3D printer

Unsurprisingly it's out of stock at the moment.

Pretty cool though that these are getting so cheap, seems like we should already have a service where a company owns a big, fast, industrial-sized 3D printer and you can order things like printed bookshelves, tables, chairs, etc. to your exact specifications - like a shelving unit that fits exactly in the space you've got, or one that's exactly the right size to hold NES carts or Genesis carts, or whatever - with no overhang or room for dust to gather, and so on.

Wow! What a deal for a try and see entry point. They have another at $319, in stock. Prints twice as fast and almost double the dimensions.

A friend has the $319 unit and he says it's pretty great.

Yeah...  I've been flirting with a LulzBot TAZ for a while. The new TAZ 6 is pretty impressive.
