I felt disappointment when the resulting object was just an extrusion of the drawing. If I had been told ahead of time that I could make a "physical object" out of my drawing -- or in some other way assuage my curiosity and anticipation about how you would make a 2D sketch "3D" -- I might not have felt so let-down by the result.<p>Mentioning how <i>long</i> it would take added to my expectations that it would be some tricky, sophisticated, new trick. It's cool, it's just not as cool as I led myself to expect, given the copy.

Amazing application of technology! I would totally buy it to use as decoration if I lived in USA.

Anyone got any examples that don't just seem to be trivially extruded surfaces? Or is that _it_?

I love this. Can't wait to get some logos printed for the office.
