If it becomes cheaper to download schematics to and create your own sundries rather then just get them at the Dollar Store, I guess that's possible. Only plastic items can be made, right?

Yeah, I think they'll probably remain limited to plastic/resins and the like. As I understand it, they currently work kind of like programmable glue guns, melting a tube of plastic and laying down dot after dot of it, eventually assembling the desired shape.

I've seen one of those working on American Restoration, I believe - they were making a plastic part to be sent to a fabricator to be cast in aluminum. They're really messy, though, when the plastic part is done it's immersed in this mess of plastic powder from overspray.
