Large Scale 3D Printing

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.
