1. A machine for precisely delivering and affixing solid media for the purpose of creating prototypes of varying size and precision. The device comprising:

  • A media supply tube to supply different media to be precisely placed and affixed;

    A media control means to precisely control the rate of media delivery;

    A precision stepper motor to control said media control means;

    An adhesive dispersal ring to coat said media with adhesive;

    An adhesive injector to control the amount of adhesive distributed to said adhesive dispersal ring;

    A media retainer to retain said media until the device is in precise position to place and adhere said media;

    An adhesive accelerator tube to apply adhesive accelerator to the prior adhered said media before the next media is affixed;

    An adhesive accelerator injector to control the supply of said adhesive accelerator to said adhesive accelerator tube;

    A computer controlled multi axis CNC machine to precisely control the positioning of the device when said media coated with said adhesive emerges from said media retainer and is precisely affixed; and

    Software to precisely control said computer controlled multi axis machine, said stepper motor, said adhesive injector, said media retainer, and said adhesive accelerator injector.
