I went looking for doors once on eBay. Those people are insane. I found a plastic door *skin* (just a cosmetic bit) and they wanted $450 EACH for them. I suspect someone told them they were made from ground unicorn horn bound together with a resin made from the tears of a virgin politician.

A virgin politician?
They would be as rare as an honest politician!

They're even MORE rare. Even an honest politician has screwed somebody.

Very Good Point!

@JackFoz Nice Enslosure. I like the bottom fed filament. I need you to tidy up my office! @geneb You always have the coolest stuff laying around... I wanna fly one of your simulators.. You know, the big 'PartDaddy' machine is supposed to be on exhibit at the AirZoo in Kalamazoo, MI, this winter. @teoman it works! @predawnsky Is that the mancave in the basement? Looks like a nice setup for working on projects @emile1138 see you at work tomorrow. And eagle, I decided to blurt out all of this in one post so I don't get to close to your posting record...

Stop by the next time you're in town. I've got an Oculus Rift DK2 VR headset that'll blow your mind.

Oculus rift?! Jealous...

I found out yesterday that my dad is in the midst of (tying to) create a full motion platform for a simpit...

I'll let you know in 20 years when he finishes. Just kidding. More like ten years. He was saying something about an inverted deltabot design for the platform, to which I raised my eyebrow... do simpits really need that kind of positional accuracy? haha. Okay I just asked him, it's a stewart platform he's making and he has most of the parts already haha.... so this might be fun. I see in my future the printing of many avionics console replicas...

Stewart platforms are pretty easy to build and very difficult to drive properly. What is he using for positioners?
