With 3D printing and do-it-yourself all the rage these days, there's more and more interest in inexpensive equipment that allows people to print their own 3D models.

Most of the attention in this area has gone to MakerBot's Replicator, but Cubify, a division of 3D Systems recently came out with its $1,300 Cube personal 3D printer, a system designed to bring the excitement of the hot technology home.

Users can design their own 3D models, or can choose from an library of existing designs. And, if a design is too big to print on the Cube, Cubify will print it for you. For a fee, of course.
