As replicators, I think the board kind of misses the "thrill of the hunt", trying to figure out what a prop once was, in it's former life. With all the computer designs and CGI props, us DIY guys have no chance, unless we can get access to 3D printers and multi-axis lathes.
So, having said that, in this day and age of CAD programs and fancy 3D printing, do you ever wish you could go back to the old days of prop building, ala Star Wars? Digging through piles of "junk" and sticking them together with bolts and duct tape? Seeing if you can realize your dream, with stuff you found in the back corner of a pawn shop, goodwill or local junkyard?
