This is how "The Rise of the Machines" starts. The next thing you know, they'll be "talking" to each other via SkyNet.
Seriously, a friend of mine that runs a factory specialising in electrostatic plating would be seriously interested in this for making all the "21 Today" type plastic widgets for greetings cards and cakes. At present he finds it cheaper to fly all the way to China and India to get the prototypes hand-carved than to have them done locally by STL.
