It can use ABS? (if you customise it a bit)

I know it's only on ver. 2, but it already works.
Claims that it can 'print itself' are only true if you can actually 
build a successful one. It would be very cool if it was possible to 
easily recycle plastic junk (tons of the sheit everywhere) into usable 
material.
As long as the X-Y-Z software and hardware is sound, the actual 
printhead and printing material is not written in stone (plastic)
and can advance for future updates..

I must admit that the creator is very potty in his description of the 
project ;)
