Saw this and had to comment: Skyhook's intake roller had a pair of hubs that came off a 3D printer, complete with the "standard" 6-hole bolt pattern. And the box containing Skyhook's IMU came off the same printer. And at that point, we'd had the printer about a month, maybe 2. When I was in college, we got some plugs for a robot's frame built on their high-quality one.
