The MakerBot Thing-O-Matic 3D printer is a breakthrough in 3D printing 
technology. We've named it the Thing-O-Matic because it is an automatic 
3D printer. All other 3D printers can only do one thing at a time while 
the MakerBot Thing-O-Matic 3D printer prints thing after thing! Buy it, 
assemble it, and enjoy being the first on your block to live in the 
cutting-edge personal manufacturing future of tomorrow!
