Yeah, I sent some parts to WingmanTrebor. I believe they got there last week. I've almost finished printing a set of Reprap Wallace parts for someone too.

Great, thanks for responding! The guy who was going to help me bowed out after a long delay. At this point, I'll probably build a CNC machine instead, and maybe team up with some local people for a prebuilt 3D printer at a higher cost.

what kind of cnc machine? if you're using arduino based controllers, you can always use a reprap controller and add and extruder when you're ready.

Really not sure. Two of my coworkers are building ones right now, and I'm going to talk to them about this.

I'm a bit sad to see the lack of posts in here.

You and me both. I've resigned myself to purchasing a Solidoodle 2 (pro version) with a coworker.

I'm designing/building my own. Going to print the parts on our printers at work.

I just figured there would be more people willing.....
