I'll get one when, like CND the model is being built with laser beams in the
next room in real time.
They probably have that already.
And its probably made by Leica.

Leica Microsystems GmbH
Wetzlar, Germany

Leica Geosystems AG
Heerbrugg, Switzerland


Maybe not.

As I find out Leica is a Swiss company.
