Re: I just pulled the trigger in Portland, OR
My printer finally arrived. I'm building it after I get off work at night. So about 5 hours a day. Yesterday I built the base up to the heated bed installation and stopped before doing the uprights. I flubbed up my initial unboxing/assembly recordings so I probably wont have much of a build video ...

Re: Man charged with 2 year sentence for 3d printing a firea
Yeah, I think this being 3d printed is certainly in the periphery. It was a more or less obvious outcome to manufacturing any kind of firearm in Japan. Side note: Weren't Sten Guns in WW2 originally made from a bicycle machine shop? I could be wrong on my history there, but I seem to remember that ...

We're also in Portland. 2 new Rostock's in Portland w00t. do you go to any 3d printing meetups? I'd be interested in getting a little club together if you are interested. I already lead the ...

Hey All, I'm McDirty... I live up in Portland, OR and am very excited to join the community. I am really excited, I'm a software developer by trade, and I'm just now wrapping my head around what I can accomplish with a 3d printer. I literally just purchased a Rostock Max V2. I'm pretty sure I'm ...
