Hey guys.
Yes, Jay is correct about the rapid prototyping system. Here is a link to what it is.

If you guys have a high speed connection, you'll be able to view the quicktime movie about the process. Its really cool. I'm trying to learn 3d Max in order to model my own rims in 24th scale. It can build pretty much anything, but round cylindrical objects come out perfectly-down to the tiniest of details. I'm having a blast at work playing with digital imaging. Oh, if you're wondering what my work uses it for - we use it for movie props and very detailed models that are used in the toy industry.
I haven't had much going on as far as models, but I'm trying to get things for Tamiya / con 2003.
