Marrk, it is awesome to hear you chime in on this because I have a post
that will be going up this weekend. I may have to rewrite a nbit now.

Of course the thrust of the article is not about following your footsteps,
or even mine. But more about using a 3D creatively as it is intended, as a
rapid prototyping machine and possibly as a small batch manufacturing
machine to test the market with. I think there is still money to be made as
a 3D printer owner since they are not yet ubiquitus, but at the same time
you see the meteoric success that you had.
