Hi Patrick,
I have never used it myself but I noticed since some years in the toy
shops a gadget called 3D puzzle. The type of puzzle that I am thinking
of consists of a bucket full of cardboard layers that you have to stack
together yourself in order to create for example a replica of the Venus
of Milo. I think that such a thing is the perfect and never to be
forgotten example of layered manufacturing, including the well known
problem of staircase effect.
Hope this can be of any use.
