As soon as you see these little RC Koopa shells, you know that life can't be
that bad. In fact, they've already had a hallelujah-inducing impact on the world of the
3D-printing genius who created them. Ten days ago, Michael Curry (aka Skimbal) was among America's 13.9 million unemployed, having been unceremoniously booted out of his ailing architect's firm. All he had was a $700 MakerBot printer to stop his hands from idling, but he made the most of it. MakerBot saw his stuff and were as bowled over as we are, so they just gave the guy a job. We're dusting off our
Wii controllers and even those little plastic steering wheels in celebration.
