Acutally you can use IR pyrometers on heat beds. Just have to put a piece of black glass tape on the bed.If I recall black tape has emissivity of around 95 or so. Just get a descent one like a fluke that allows you to set the emissivity and you will get a very accurate reading.

If you like museums. I would recommend the smithsonian in washington DC or the Henry ford in Greenville Michigan. Alot of classic cars at the henry ford so it would be good for both of you. Been to both both are very nice. Oh yeah its Disney world in Florida not disney land, thats in California

Hey, has anyone had any issues with the acrylic base warping from the hot bed? Just wondering if I should make one out of Alum.

How do ya add a avatar???
