I'm assuming the medium a 3d printer uses is as much a factor in the time frame as is the size and structure of the object being made, a intake's got allot of mass.

Appreciate the info and insight, I'd love to be a fly on the wall. It's a little like the R&D that went into the original Bathtub, only newer technology, much thanks Tom.
