[chbot] Making 3D printers more affordable

[m.beckett at amuri.net]

For those who don't want to buy a printer.

They have a branch in Wellington that provides some of the services 
either locally or via other NZ firms.
Pretty reasonable, and their CAD is apparently very easy to use.
I'm pretty sure they have 3D printing available in NZ.

Might be an option for some.
