What can you do with a 3D printer?

Aside from making small objects with 3D printer. What else can it do?

Make large objects, one small piece at a time.

... it can move and carry things in his workspace -- so think new: "... what can you do with a software-controllable position-modifier?"

Call for the project "garbage-free seas" - [reprap.org]

This reminds me of an engineering class I had about 35 years ago. The instructor passed around a box full of random stuff, and each student had to take one item. Once everyone had their items in hand, they had to make a list of uses for it, other than its intended uses, in 10 minutes. Here goes:

If it's really well made you can attach a chain or rope and use it as an anchor for a boat.

You can use the feet (if it has them) to hold down papers on your desk.

If it has a heated bed you can use it to warm your lunch.

You can use it to animate Halloween props.

You can give it to someone as a wedding gift.

You can use it to fill some of the empty space inside a cardboard box.

You can write gcode that plays popular songs using the noise and vibrations of the motors.

that's enough for now...

You can use it to measure the height of building, just like a barometer

Lure naive investors

Produce BIG ugly pieces of "arts" able to compete with your kids/ grand kids clay projects from elementary school.
