Only if you promise...promise, to use the Bazooka responsibly,

Ironic that the manufacturer may be put out of business by their own product.

It's crazy! Gotta love 'Open Source!' (but they still have ways to make money)

I wrote a piece about Botobjects new 3D-printer. Don't know if it's any good, but it prints down to 25 microns. They are based in NY if anyone is interested.

NASA awards grant for 3-D food printer; could it end world hunger?

http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/nasa-awards-grant-3d-food-printer-could-end-194050661.html

“One of the major advantages of a 3-D printer is that it provides personalized nutrition,” Contractor told Quartz. “If you’re male, female, someone is sick—they all have different dietary needs. If you can program your needs into a 3-D printer, it can print exactly the nutrients that person requires.”

NASA is certainly a believer: The six-month grant comes to $125,000. The agency specifically interested in using the 3-D printer to feed astronauts on long space voyages.

“Long distance space travel requires 15-plus years of shelf life,” Contractor said to Quartz. “The way we are working on it is, all the carbs, proteins and macro and micro nutrients are in powder form. We take moisture out, and in that form it will last maybe 30 years.”

Yeah. But they threw the hammer down on the citizen that put out the design on a 3-d gun.

Go figure. What's bad for you is good for us.
