I'd prefer to defer to authority on this one:

I'm pretty sure that includes 3D printing.

Edit: I want to reiterate here... I'm not Anti-3D printing (heck, I'm waiting for my Solidoodle to show up, and have a Z-corp machine within 10 feet of my office). And I'm not saying that the rules makers didn't mean to include 3D printing. I'm just saying that their first edition of the rules doesn't include 3D printed "functional" parts as legal on the robot, and that the rules should be amended.
