Ooo, about 5 lbs at a time! :30- :200-  Of course, it tastes like crap. :127-  :208- :208- :208- :208-

Seriously, very cool. When I opened this thread, I was expecting to see one of those 3D plotters that cuts out solid objects from blocks of plastic as instructed from a 3D computer scan or CAD design.

This takes that concept to a new level. :89-

Let's face it: Most things are invented with sex or "pron" in mind. :200- :208- :208- :208-

Probably, but you'll be able to make pretty, colorful crap!  :72-   You know what they say: GIGO. So in this case, I guess it would be CICO.  :25-

See, the machine is defective then.  If it's gonna make perfect copies of crap it should taste the same.  I am nominating Bunker to be the official taste tester  ......    :256- :200- :200-

Wonder if it could do an exact copy of my Bally s5500. Now that would be a test and a half

I think you'll have to wait for them to invent the Replicators from Star Trek. :79- :96-

Thanks everybody. :88- I definitely want to keep the number up for a while, so I'm biting my fingers to refrain from posting replies.

Bunker, I do have a magic button. It's called "Modify" :5-  :79-  and I figured I'd use it to butt in on your post.  :200- :208- :208-

I'm going to have a birthday drink. I've got 7777 posts on 7/(7+7)/11 and I'm 7*7 years old. Where's a crap game when you need one? :129-  :97- :97- :97-
