That looks great, Ellison.  My imagination is going much faster than my CAD learning process.

If you're just making solid parts, laser cutting would be a far better method. Much, much faster and cheaper. You can actually compare the cost difference through a site like Ponoko.

If I had access to a Stratasys, I'd be printing something less boring than that. :-)

@Jesse the first part on the scale was actually printed with 10% fill, so it's mostly hollow.  Laser cutting won't be able to do that.

Ellison, I attached that file in the main 3D discussion group area.  It wont let me post in the blender parts discussion.

Is the utility bar missing?  I had the same problem, and fixed it by clearing my browser cache.  Some bad javascript keeps getting downloaded for some reason.
