BigRep One 3D printer. Has a build volume of 45 x 39 x 47 inches (46 cubic feet.) At $39,000 it's not cheap, but kind of sort of in reach for something that can actually print usable stuff. Like furniture. I thought Bill might be interested (and/or alarmed at the final output.)

The Searzall is a revolutionary hand-held cooking tool for the professional and home cook. It gives you the power of raw fire but also the ability to moderate and control that power.

The Searzall puts the power of a bed of hot coals in the palm of your hand –instantly.

Once I was able to find the NBC 2014 Olympics full replay stream I discovered that it doesn't have pause, fast forward or rewind functions. The commercial breaks are frequent but too short to be of much use. Guess I should have a cooler and piss jar next to the sofa.
