This is the latest generation of the LulyzBot TAZ 3d Printer. This 3rd generation printer looks pretty sweet!


It'll print in multiple materials
Wood, polystyrene, plastic? Fantastic.

TAZ is one of the few desktop 3D printers that can print with more than just your run-of-the-mill plastic. Create with ABS, PLA, PVA, high-impact polystyrene, andwood filament. But don’t stop there. With add-ons, you can print with nylon and more.
The price is $2,195.00 which isn't bad for a printer that can print in all 3 materials.
