Total tangent - one of the things I love about 3D printing is that it's about as close to "ceilingHeight += 6" as you can get in the real world.

Case in point: I modeled a thing today, printed it off, and realized that it would be ever so helpful if one part were about a millimeter thicker. 30 seconds later, version 2 of the part is on its way to the printer.

It's fucking _amazing._ I can't wait for stuff like that to become as mainstream as paper printers are.
