This link is for a reprap SCARA: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cquw7dvR80A
There was a conversation a while back about how many plastic Yoda heads and other fast prototyped plastic waste would end up in land fills. I see the above reprap SCARA being a positive and constructive engineering use for a reprap machine. The HF06 used stepper motor and linear bearings but the rest is pretty much made with a reprap. Cool stuff.
