RepRap Combinatorics Problem

Documentation

New user-developers can't do this unless each step has been documented. Experienced user-developers would rather research and develop than document. Entrepreneur user-developers want to sell one set of Mendel parts, or 50000 sets of electronics, filament, Mendel vitamins and need RepRap to do documentation and support.

Examples

User 1 uses w0, x0, y0, z0. User 2 uses w1, x1, y1, z1. ... User 134533 uses w4, x2, y_not, z5.

All the stuff above could be in a set of autonomous columns. It's a slot machine (or Enigma device) really.

Note: It will be fun to do this as a 'Slot Machine'-type desktop toy.
