Also, I notice you missed the build plate in the list of non-printed parts, I guess the hot bed is optional?
We are going to be making them with e3D hot-ends, but its a modular design and you could make a mount for any hot-end really. Secondly the bed wasn't on the list on non printed parts because we are planning on printing the lower bed, and a heated bed is not needed for milling or laser etching, but if you want to print with ABS then yes a heated bed is needed and not printable, and thirdly its more than just for kinds (although great for kids), if you want you can put some metal rods in it (I made it so you can if you want) and make the printer as large as you want, their is nothing stopping you from making it large enough to print a car, most kinds wont be going that deep into what it is capable of doing.
