I’d like to have a few LEGO bricks 3D printed at SIGGRAPH this year. I have a
contact who is willing to print up the bricks for me using a StrataSys machine
[1].
Can someone please create and send me an ASCII STL file of a 2x4 brick?
Also, any other neat parts that would print up. I’d love to see if the machine
can handle one of these:
Simple VRML files will work also. Please email me with your files and with any
questions.
SIGGRAPH starts a week from today! :-)

| (...) Hi Tim, Since I just spent a week doing this, let me throw in a few caveats: If you're talking about going from DAT to reality using an RP machine, you're going to have to tweak some of the dimensions. As you know, DAT dimensions are not the (...) (20 years ago, 2-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.events, FTX)

My contact has printed a couple versions and Jason's been making improvements to the files that give us better results. I'll have pics (...)
