Alright, time for some more useful blog posts again. I went to the exhibition at IF a few days ago, and to some readings they did there this week.
On the first floor of the Budascoop, timelab was demonstrating some of the open hardware projects in 3D printing, including the MakerBot and a RepRap modified by Unfold to print in clay. Here's some HD footage.
"MakerBot demo by timelab" at Innovation Festival Kortrijk (3D Printing)

"RepRap Clay Printer by Unfold" at Innovation Festival Kortrijk (3D Printing)
"miniCNC by timelab" at Innovation Festival Kortrijk (CNC)
"Demoweekend Open Hardware" at Innovation Festival Kortrijk (3D Printing, CNC)
Unfold's modified RepRap and some of the object's printed by it:
A picture of one of the MakerBots:
Some parts printed on the MakerBot in different colors of ABS, which you can buy from the MakerBot website.
The open source miniCNC developed by timelab.
Oh yes, and this is what the MakerBot was printing in the video, about 24 minutes were spent by the machine on making this thing.
Later this week, I'll also visit Interieur 2010 here in Kortrijk, so expect more pictures from that expo as well.
