Hopefully everything is going well, it was a same part last time when all hell broke loose. :tinfoil:

Looking good ArcticDude!
Ha, I know that feeling with 3D Printers.
Sometimes they seem to fail in very similar places one important files.

Actually that was Top Frame last time..
Sorry, my bad.

Jan said that last part (Battery Section) printing is going to take 16 hours to print, and he don't want it to fail after 14 or 15 hours.

 

[CurtisOliver]

16 hours is not bad. I remember when 3D printers took days to produce a part like that. They were very old and basic though.

It is frustrating when a printer fails at >90%.

And fail on 90% and you noticed that all rest of 10% filament has melted inside the printing head :banghead:

Oh! I haven't seen a Makerbot do that.

I've had to remove large quantities of plastic ********* where it failed overnight, but luckily nothing to severe. I hate it when the extruder gets blocked though.

Edit: Seriously. :thinking: Why is spag hetti filtered.

...plastic spag hetti

Curtis, you should know that this is not a pasta forum


Now, which color to pick.. Hmm, that's the question..

 

[CurtisOliver]

Lol, I don't know what this forum has against pasta varieties.

Call me boring, but I like the black.
Now where's Bob?

EDIT

BTW.. There was Grizzly Bear on our backyard just few moments ago
If nobody hasn't heard from me in week or so, I have been probably eaten

Not my vid, Some body captured it just while a go:
Video: Bear on front yard

 

[CurtisOliver]

Yep.

Thanks for the warning. I'll keep that in mind.

 

[BobMc]

Lol

Now where's Bob?

He's out spending money at Wal-Mart.

Ps. decided to go with the black. ( the switch, not the bear )

Pss, quit playing with dinner. : :crackup:

 

[CurtisOliver]

Found anything nice?
I'm glad you chose black. Lol, not the bear.

@ Curtis; Looking to upgrade my label maker. Nothing at Walmart. Tried Staples, maybe, but their pricey for a good one. 1-3 hundred. Going to have to consider it. :thinking:

 

[CurtisOliver]

It depends on how much you are willing to spend, and on whether or not you will be using it enough to credit the cost. But if you are using it to label any existing and future lasers then we all know it will be heavily used.

That is rather expensive for my liking, is it a stock issue or do Staples just not do what you are after. If it's stock, then you may be better if waiting.
