tackle!)

Yes, I know. But can we do that with LEGO? No. No LEGO Laser. And my dad's
Laser pointer isn't powerful enough to burn paper. That's why I posted only
the link with the Paper Laminate Technique (PLT). :)
Stero Lithography and Selective Laser Sintering is just *creepy*. What
actually spurned all this was a commercial for PING I saw during dinner. The
intro shot was a deposition machine building up the head of a club. REALLY
cool. I've been looking for video clips, and darn it, I can't find any!
Since you're so quick with URL's I'd like you to please find me a video clip
now. Mr Smarty pants. :)

And yes, one of my original ideas was to use glue-laden yarn. Lay it down in
a coil pattern. Coily yarn-glue duck. Ewwwww. Definately will use duplo. And
paridisa parts. And a metroliner nose cone for the yarn nozzle.
