    I run our prototyping machines at work so I put on a few pieces at a time as we were building other jobs.

    I never worked out what the cost would be to have the parts built with this technology, but I'd estimate around $200.00

    This is really cool. I used to write CNC machine software for a while but this was at a time when STL was really cutting edge. I have some wax models around cut from the machines. It turns out that all of the miniatures for UK Warhammer are scanned from larger models using software that I had a part in and are then the molds are CNC cut.

    Since I write (or have written) 3D terrain apps and 3D scanner apps, if I made an STL file for them, how accurate do you think it could physically make them and what size. Just curious really. Got some guys in a town near me that have a really big 5 axis wood mill and always thought it would be just great to mill out a table top for miniatures with full relief ! Could even cover it with a canvas inkjet sprayed with correct color texture for it. That would be so cool.

    So on a smaller scale, and purely theoretically, what interesting things could be done ?
