I agree. I've seen several varities of 3-D prototyping in action, from
matrixed lasers through a tank of acrylic resin to stereolithography to
the powder thing shown here and an inkjet that laid down layers of resin.
But those were all solid parts. The thing where it magically creates a
functional screw drive inside a wrench? I don't buy that. And all of
the pieces I've seen were all the same color.
