That Lego printer that printed documents with pens was cool and everything, but a Lego 3D printer made from 2400 bricks that builds a Lego creation of your dreams? Now we’re talking.
Battlebricks’ MakerLegoBot used three Lego Mindstorms NXT kits, along with nine more NXT motors, plus over 2400 bricks to create the 3D printer. Using even more Lego bricks, the mechanical printer arm assembles the bricks one by one, taking print commands via USB from a PC running a Java application.
