Big Cool 3D Printer

There are probably technical reasons why not, but if those reasons could be side stepped, is there anything stopping the Maslow from being fitted with an extruder (oriented downwards of course, on an extended arm) and with some code, sled and frame modification, becoming potentially a 2ft x 4ft or even 4ft x 8f 3d printer? The frame would still stay vertical with a large hole cut through it to allow the extruder travel through and the z axis would have to cover more depth, while the y axis would determine the height of the extruder. If this does not sound too much like hogwash already, I could knock out a quick model to demonstrate what I mean.

I saw this thread too while checking to see if any conversation had gone on before along those lines, and I’m further inspired by the video @Bee shared there.
