@Filthy:
Is that an FDM 3D printer? I never had too much luck with any 3D printers I have ever used. I want one of those Form Labs printers with the auto-leveling printing surface. But that is not in the cards for me any time soon.
@weftyarnThat is correct, @Filthy
It’s a semi-professional Delta FDM Printer. We use these a lot for orthopedic applications (e.g. printing test models to quickly check the fit of digitally designed custom orthoses).They have an incredible cost to value ratio, but yeah, they’re also annoying to fiddle around with sometimes.
Auto bed leveling is one of the features I never want to miss on a printer.@Filthy:
Much like you are feeling, I am feeling too. This is why I quit my job recently. I hope you feel better soon @weftyarn
My job is fun most of the time, so I won’t complain. But these days everything just feels absurd.
Thanks for your wishes, same goes for you!And in the meantime, let’s enjoy all these positive posts that are flying in

I'll have to whip something up and send it to you so you can print it. What file format does your printer recognize? G-code? STL? Proprietary? @weftyarn

Hometown is Indiana, PA. Mostly tell people I’m from Pittsburgh to skip explaining that the towns name is also a state name. It’s small and rural, but in a 10 minute drive I’m here and it’s absolutely beautiful. Enjoy this balancing act on a dock [emoji23]Wearing IH-76, Slubby Pronto Collabs, and Topo hiking boots.

I'm picturing @Fadez in one of those fighting games you can Ring Out roundhouse kicking someone into the water.
Very great picture though

Working on the farm. Not mine, it's my mom's in Minnesota(been helping out since I had lost my job with the pandemic so until I decide what the heck to do, I'll keep throwing hay.)
I bought the jeans 777 21oz SST right when I got here, hoping to give them their first wash when I leave. The IHSH-262-NAV has been a lifesaver this winter. There was one stretch it wasn't above -5°f for a week I think . 🥶 -
Heck!
Beautiful picture @Denimminer -

I live in Ohio now but I grew up with two hometowns. One in Alabama with my mom during the school year and another in Washington state with my dad during the summer. I recently returned to my Washington home to lay my dads ashes to rest. He passed 8 years ago and I wasn’t sure what to do with his ashes. Eventually not having done anything with them began to weigh on me and I finally decided he ought to have a plot and marker rather than sit in my closet. The trip was emotionally taxing but brought much needed closure. And it was nice to stop by and see some great makers like White’s, WESCO, Grease Point Workwear, and M.Crow. Plus a little hiking and fly fishing to break up the 5k miles of driving.
