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].

Cool.

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:

Hmm.. tricky. I know the machines we have in our model shop at work could
handle those, not sure about the StratsSys machine though.

Simple VRML files will work also. Please email me with your files and with
any questions.

I can get you stl files, no problem. Feel free to email me a grocery list of
parts you would like. So long as they aren’t too complicated, I should be
able to model them up during the week and send you all the files you’d like.

Dear Jason,
I am also interested in getting an stl file of a 2x4 brick as well as a 4x4
plate. What I would really like is to create a 6”x6” or 12”x12” base plate out
of 1/4” acrylic plexiglass (or hardrock maple) for a project I have in mind. I
have a really cheap cnc machine and supposedly have the software to take a stl
file and create a 3d model out of it. Never have used it because had no desire
to learn how to create the files and not enough money to buy a scanner to do so.
But if I had a file, I would like to give it a try. If it worked, might be just
the thing for small runs of custom parts.

| (...) Tommy, I can get you those tomorrow. (I just got remember is all.) Wood parts cnc'd would be pretty cool. I could get you an stl file for a baseplate (whatever number of studs by whatever number of studs) if you'd like as well. Those would be (...)
