Hello,
I know at the Fab Lab in April they demonstrated a plastruder mounted on a shopbot to create a 3d printer (http://www.shopbotblog.com/index.php/2012/04/2012-tulsaok-fab-lab-camp-shopbot/). Any updates since then? I haven't been able to find anything on the Internet about it, yet it seems like a natural step as low-end 3d printing (specifically FDM) continues to drop in price and rise in quality. Does the ShopBot have the required precision and accuracy for quality 3d prints?
