If you're serious, you'll never understand.

I suspect you're joking.

Half joking. I can appreciate the awesomeness, but it seems like a pain to model it in legoCad then "print it" (and that video is at 16x). Also, is the print built out of Kinex? Isnt that lego blasphemy?

And it be better if it could build a HUGE lego monstrosity. I too welcome our lego overlords.

Lol, it does seem rather impractical. You design your build, start it.. and 24 hours later it's done!
