In case anyone is in the Kalamazoo area Sunday morning who is interested in seeing the Orion in action I will be with the Kalamazoo Maker Group at Kalamazoo's Hamfest

Talked with quite a few people at the HAMfest. I forget how many people still think of 3D printing as magic. Many people asked about the Orion. I think they liked that it that SeeMeCNC is a midwest company.

I really hope you disinfected the Orion after letting it be that close to a Makerbot. Makerbot cooties can be fatal to better printers.

I hope you took a shower when you got home after being so close to them.

Geesh, that's a lot of printers. If you keep it up you'll have as many as GeneB.

Sadly all but 2 eventually have to go back to their owners

I'll be especially sad when the MAX goes....
