Delta ORD Bot

Edit: I renamed this topic from ORD Camp 2013
Time flies, and another ORD Camp is coming in two weeks. ORD Camp is a Chicago based tech weekend. They encourage you to bring something to show off.
Last year I brainstormed, designed, fabricated and built the ORD Bot in a mad dash the week before the event. That is where the name (ORD Bot) came from of course. This year I am getting started a week early and am thinking about what to bring.
I am leaning towards building a Delta Bot style printer using Makerslide. I know there are a few out in the wild, but I would start with a clean sheet of paper (or CAD folder. I guess). I think it would be cool to make a super clean, design with nearly zero exposed wires. It might be a lot to do in 2 weeks, but could be fun. What do you think...am I crazy.
