3D Printing....

If anyone is thinking of having a play with a 3D printer, there's one here for £100:



Unbelievable - pocket money price!

Grommet, Olley, I think you should DO IT! Order one now.

Seconded.

One of my staff bought a cheap one "for his son" and it isn't bad, albeit it took an age to assemble and the resolution isn't brilliant. However, I would value Grommet's opinion greatly

Well if you would like to donate to my 3D fund please be my guest.

As long as you match that with a donation to my CNC milling machine for PCBs

Are we talking Bridgeport?

No, Chinese rather than kerchiing kerchiing

Serious question, why do you need a CC milling machine for a pcb? My brother (this is 50 years ago) did many pcb's, as I remember he painted the tracks on and then soaked them in acid. Sometimes the board had loads of holes in it if I remember right. He made me an inverter around 1970, toroidal transformers, crystal with a divider network and triacs? Worked fine from a set of lorry batteries. Funny the things you remember, somethings you ought to remember you don't.
