[Andrew Plumb]

Glad you could make it out!

Btw, that GPL'd parametric human model thing I mentioned is at http://www.makehuman.org/

Truly a nice piece of equipment, and small enough for any enthusiast (my wife still told me "No" when I suggested getting one - dang!).  The laser cutter was impressive too, and the soldering station is really well equipped.  I just might have to move in.

I would not try to accomplish such a task on my own, perhaps others at Mod Lab would be interested in a collaberative project.  It certainly would be an envelope-pushing undertaking; requiring robotics, electronics, artistic painting and advanced model making skills.
