In case you’re like us — this is to assert, wildly popular and devastatingly good looking — then you definately’re probably wondering why someone hasn’t produced an action figure on your likeness yet. Well wonder not, for the parents over at MakerBot just announced yet one more great tool to make at home 3D printing even easier. An addition to the aptly titled Thing-O-Matic , the Gen 4 Interface Board Kit v1.1 is billed as a DIY interface that permits you to operate your thingy printer with no need to connect it to a computer. The kit comes equipped with an SD card slot for straightforward independent operation, and as the board’s fully hackable, you need to use it to regulate your robots or homebrew CNC devices , too. It sports nine programmable buttons and an LCD screen for feedback, and lets you set and skim temperatures, view build progress, or start a brand new project stored at the SD card. So what are you looking ahead to? Yourself-aggrandizing bobblehead isn’t going to make itself.
