Nerd News: "3D-printed consumer electronics just became a reality"

http://www.extremetech.com/extreme/141669-3d-printed-consumer-electronics-just-became-a-reality

Really cool!

I am looking forward to 3D printing, though I still plan to have a lathe and milling machine, or a combo machine, eventually.

Milling machines are one of the very few machines that can be used to make a copy of themselves.

Lathes can sorta of do that as well, I suspect 3D printers may be able to do that eventually.

Computer Desk of the Week (CDotW)

This week's desk of the week is a loft, but it still has room for three 27" screens http://lifehacker.com/5952844/the-lofted-workspace

Quote from link above with specs & bit more:
"liquid cooled 6 core, 64 gb RAM custom machine and 3x 27" Achieva Shimian Korean IPS displays. These are mounted to the wall with monitor arms and can be pulled closer to the edge of the table if needed. The setup works really well for my 3d modeling and coding work"
