From what I can see of this, it's only the outside shapes, not any interior voids such as rooms. I kind of doubt it could do much with a lot of shapes such as spirals also, the milling head would have a tough time getting in to do the cutting.
There's another type of technology, 3D lithography that I believe can do anything SL can build. Getting the data files built would be pretty tricky though without LL support. Actually, maybe LL should offer this as a service. http://www.xpress3d.com/?src=g3dprinting |
