The Kindness of Forum Members...

Nice to be back after what seems to be months of traveling and consulting and helping startups.

Anyway, I got stuck - I burned a hot end, had lent my spare, and my only option was to use an E3D head. Unfortunately, none of the JHead holders would do the trick - so I asked a moderately new forum member who lives near me to print the effector mount in Thingiverse. In less than 24 hours, we met up, he delivered me the bracket/holder thingy and I'm almost off to the race.

Communities that help each other stay together!

You are correct, when I was out a PTC connector and had no money a forum members offered to send me one for free, and also eaglezsoar just helped me to get a geared stepper motor for the EZstruder! A lot of kind people around here, that's why this is the only forum I am regularly a part of. I love it here!!!

I totally second this. All the people that volunteered their time for me, and the encouragement not to give up. My turn to give back.
