I mentioned last week that I had purchased a 3D printer. Well this week I got a chance to try it out. In fact since I purchased it its been printing day and night! I'm pretty impressed with it but it did come with two broken plastic clips that hold the bed down. I emailed their support and they replied within an hour with a promise to send me new parts and also included a file that I could use to print my own parts! So the first picture below is the first of two parts that I printed.
On Sunday Jeff and Martin and I got a chance to fly down to Newport Oregon. Its a nice little town and a beautiful flight. I tried to use my new 360 cameras that I purchased for some VR stuff but I'm not 100% of the quality of the images.
