To give you an idea of how robust, think Lego bricks and you're in the right area. You could make lots of useful stuff, but interestingly you could also make most of the parts to make another 3D printer. That would be a machine that could copy itself.

For machine construction, electricity can be replaced with "elbow grease" and the necessary material can come from discarded vehicle parts.
