Hi guys,

Just thinking aloud, since I don't have enough $$$ or focus to come up
with a business plan.  I was thinking about the turn signal cam
naughty plastic parts and how they might be reproduced in ABS plastic.
 On a 3-D printer.  Other items like bezels and scuff plates and pedal
covers and bushings and...

Then this http://bitser.net/talks/trilug-20130110.pdf

A small cheap computer that can do anything.  UART and other pin I/O,
USB, HDMI, ethernet...

I see a new age in custom restorations.  I'll be mad when I see
someone putting that together, but at least I'll be able to buy cool
stuff for my Pantera.  I've been planning on living out my
"retirement" restoring 2000 to 2020 classic BMWs and Mercedes Benzes
as well as the occasional exotic using versital computers like this to
simulate the original intent of our current gizmos.  I don't think
there will be a 3-D printer in every home, but maybe at every
Wallgreens.

Forever in debt,
sean
