[MakeLV] 3d printer workshop

[Rob Roschewsk]

Wow ... $2K and you still need to build it .... that is a tad steep I
defer to to Tony B. and Dave S. but I see reprap parts kits out there
in the neighborhood of $650 ....

If we did something similar ... I'm just throwing numbers out .....
charge $850 .... if we had 10 participants that's $2000 to the
treasury.

I think we would need to "seed" the effort by purchasing one kit and
all the "instructors" would participate over a few weekends to build
it to gain experience.
