Large Scale 3D Printing

Picture
I was driving through a brush-less car wash the other day and realized that it had a huge 2 axis positioning arm.

Very similar to a modern 3D printing.  The only thing missing is the build plate that lowers.

You could retrofit one of these car wash units, and turn it into a huge 3D printer.  I'm sure that the resolution would not be great, but you could use it on large scale objects where resolution was less important.  Maybe extrude a large cell foam material to make furniture.

    Hello.  I'm a creative sort of a fellow, and I'm always coming up with ideas.  I have notebooks filled with them.  I'll be posting them here from time to time.  If you like one and wish to adopt it, feel free.
