The idea of encompassed printing made easy is very exciting. Right now it is very difficult to tune and program a printer to print on an existing object, not to mention the risk of ruining the step motor or damaging the nozzle.<p>By implementing a proper PID controller and being able to adjust materials without having to move the object, it&#x27;s going to be cool seeing new over mold type parts that can be quickly produced.

I especially like the idea of bringing plans for a complex object to a local print shop and leaving with my printed widget :)
