Why buy a printer, when you can make your own?
 
DIY Lego Printer mark of a fanboy

How do you know that you are head over heels in love with this toy called Lego? Well, when you're fanatical enough to come up with a printer made out of Lego, of course! Taking hours to construct, this Lego printer churns out a solitary page after a full minute - definitely not something you would want to have at home when hard pressed to roll out a bunch of documents for the office the next day. The Lego printer is versatile enough to function in a bi-directional method, allowing it to render rows of output both forwards and backwards. Not something you would see from Canon or Epson anytime soon, eh?

I would be killer if it could hold something like a dremel.

Next, a Lego CNC router........

If I had put that printer together, instead of the guy sitting on top of the pen holder by himself bobbing up and down, I'd put a Lego chick in a doggy style position and have the guy boink her. Now that would be cool, LOL. LEGO Porn.

BTW, nice old school Mac there...........

hey don't fail me. just because you're the all powerful moderator it doesn't give you the right to bash on me for being right. re-read the op's post and tell me what the ppm is. you have no right.
