Yes, but if you paint it gold it makes it look beautiful :)

Not sure exactly, the idea is to make an interactive fabrication system.
Right now I am thinking it could be fun for kids to make small blobby  
creatures by interpreting their mouse strokes into a certain  
dispensing pattern.
Although I am pretty sure the foam is toxic, and not something you  
want kids to chew on...

Interesting idea! But I guess you don't need CNC to do that.

No, it pretty much does it's own thing.
It does smooth out really nicely though.
