Unfortunately, I'm not much of a hardware hacker. But for those of you who like playing with the electronics side of things, here's a project to keep an eye on. Essentially, it's 3d printing of one-off board prototypes.

"Think MakerBot for electronics. Ultimately, the machine will etch traces, apply solder paste, place components, cook, and test."
I think they may be doing a kickstarter soon to get ramped up for production.
