And when you're done building a home with your 3-D printer, build someone to live in it.

Poke, poke. Ended up talking about this thread and its predecessor with a coworker, and I decided to see what if anything people have to offer after 9 months.

Well, Printrbot's got a printer right at the $299 price point, even if it's DIY and the filament is expensive:
The Printrbot Simple
Already Assembled is another $100.
Make Zine keeps saying that if you use PLA filament, get a fan on the build table during printing to improve quality.

New day, new post:
This guy is 3d-printing a car. Full-size. Well, okay, he's 3-d printing the mold plug for a fiberglass body shell, but still!

Wow, nice.
I wonder... hmm. If you had nothing else of a car but the blueprints and an existing model for reference - like some ultra-rare thing like The 48 Tucker - could you start bringing back stuff like that and "printing" out copies eventually?
This has interesting implications for a lot of things actually.
