This model is based on each 3-d printer's first task being printing a new printer for the next person (some metal parts have to be purchased.)

All designs made are shared in the public domain.

I hope to have it in a month or so.

a high school in my area has one for drafting classes - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/29 17:50:15

what a huge waste - CraigS MU - 2/29 17:53:30

yeah, they could've hired another teacher for that - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/29 17:54:37

Documentary about how f-ed up the unions for teachers are - CraigS MU - 2/29 18:19:08

yeah, they need to get rid of tenure for teachers - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/29 18:20:46

Reason for tenure...please educate yourself and others. - catbirdseat MU - 2/29 19:08:40

I'm not attacking the profession - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/29 19:13:15

Tenure was created for COLLEGE professors - CraigS MU - 2/29 19:13:06

tenure track professors get tenure almost automatically - TheShoe JC - 2/29 19:25:06

No...Teachers in my school district are "offered" tenure - catbirdseat MU - 2/29 19:24:51

Again, I'm not bashing good teachers - CraigS MU - 2/29 19:30:50

Tenure is written into the contract, and so is a due process - catbirdseat MU - 2/29 19:39:46

Comparing colleges such as stanford brown to magnet schools - CraigS MU - 2/29 19:46:15

Doesn't matter..once you transfer the money to corporations - catbirdseat MU - 2/29 19:57:03

Think about the fun teachers have teaching creationsim - CraigS MU - 2/29 20:01:20

wow, myths and bull**** abound - TheShoe JC - 2/29 18:30:16

they key work here is "objective" - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/29 18:38:24

RE: they key work here is "objective" - catbirdseat MU - 2/29 19:27:38

and you base this opinion on what? - TheShoe JC - 2/29 18:44:56

like you - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/29 18:49:18

Tenue does not protect teacher jobs. That is a myth... - catbirdseat MU - 2/29 19:38:07

then what does tenure do? - SoCalTigr UM - 2/29 19:52:09

It forces school districts to go through a formal - catbirdseat MU - 2/29 20:14:39

not much really - TheShoe JC - 2/29 19:57:12

fair enough(nm) - TheShoe JC - 2/29 18:50:39

don't you agree it takes an administrator with some balls - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/29 18:53:22

there are several ways to handle that - TheShoe JC - 2/29 18:57:35

as an administrator how many teachers has your school fired - CraigS MU - 2/29 19:03:07

Why would this be a problem for teachers? If administrators - catbirdseat MU - 2/29 19:17:59

The argument has come a long way from the main point - CraigS MU - 2/29 19:28:35

There is a clause in every contract allowing for removal of - catbirdseat MU - 2/29 19:46:30

And who steps in - CraigS MU - 2/29 19:50:05

Who negotiates and signs contracts - catbirdseat MU - 2/29 20:22:40

dude - TheShoe JC - 2/29 19:31:32

reduction in force not FIRED for performance - CraigS MU - 2/29 19:34:51

no state publishes termination stats based on performance - TheShoe JC - 2/29 19:42:10

Waiting for Superman points it out but the NY times and - CraigS MU - 2/29 19:48:46

ah, so again the movie must be true - TheShoe JC - 2/29 19:52:20

I love how you skip right over the fact that the NY times - CraigS MU - 2/29 19:56:50

it doesn't really bring much authority or credibility - TheShoe JC - 2/29 19:58:55

I do. Contrary to what you might think - CraigS MU - 2/29 20:03:51

you gonna share?(nm) - TheShoe JC - 2/29 20:04:38

I don't work in secondary ed anymore - TheShoe JC - 2/29 19:05:47

So what you are saying is they don't... But tenure doesn't - CraigS MU - 2/29 19:09:56

that was really a comment about non-tenured teachers - TheShoe JC - 2/29 19:11:28

Look, I'm not out to fire all teachers or disrespect - CraigS MU - 2/29 19:16:50

Scores in schools are directly tied to the economics of the - catbirdseat MU - 2/29 20:30:31

Generalization??? - CraigS MU - 2/29 19:32:57

these are all very nice talking points - TheShoe JC - 2/29 19:29:18

agree - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/29 19:02:01

That is 100% incorrect. Watch the movie Waiting for Superma - CraigS MU - 2/29 18:34:04

yeah, let's not get carried away and thinking everything is - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/29 18:40:04

so you're basing your entire knowledge base on a movie? - TheShoe JC - 2/29 18:36:18

My brother is an admin and sis a history teacher and we - CraigS MU - 2/29 18:40:33

lol - TheShoe JC - 2/29 18:46:20

My math teacher, Mrs Curtis (woman was evil) in high school - CraigS MU - 2/29 18:23:37

she said, "you're a retard, you'll be a trash man when you - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/29 18:25:00

Nope. Lafayette High School Wildwood in 99. Funny thing - CraigS MU - 2/29 18:29:27
