Ok you want to see some older projects... printed back in 2014 for my daughter's wedding.  It was sci-fi-fantasy themed. My son spent 80 hours on this model, patching,sanding,painting.  He was used to tiny miniature models, nothing this big. It was mostly printed on the green Oni, that I built in 2011( a kit from a local maker ). That was a great printer intill a cat jumped from a high point going into the printer breaking off the bed. A bed replacement later and it just never worked the same. Then the ramps board acted up..... Most of the printers in the Pic could work with just a little love...the "enclosed " little printers don't even have heated beds. Worked great for pla. I will see if I can dig anything else up.

David - FYI - that NEVER Came across as an Actual post! What I saw was THAT one is one that came across as you as you making a reply - as you can see in this pic:
Dissapearing Pics Post.jpg

All I can say is - "Kennedy - we have a Problem"!

Other than that - David - I think you are having an issue where you are replying to Yourself only - for the one where you supposedly sent the pics! How are you trying to do your postings? Via email - or via the Google Website??

Myself - right now - I am viewing the posts via the website!!!

Never blame yourself when you can just blame Kurt!   :^D

Hey is that a Super Racer in the corner? I thought at first it was a V400 but I noticed the effector is different

Yes it is. I need a new extruder on it. Have a working one in my garage along with a tenlog Idex, but it too cold out there to use them. Which sucks because I want to try and print some shoes with the peba I have. It will be great for that printing left and right foot at the same time.

Yeah - Bryan - you Big Yellow Mutt you! 
Why is anyone Blaming me? Am I truly a Troublemaker? I DO seem to be a major Troublemaker here at work...
You're right - I've now been seeing your name posted in the forum - instead of Big Yellow Mutt!

Also - I still do NOT See any pics - so I don't see the Super Racer that you speak of!?!?!?!?

Kurt that's odd, are you just using gmail to view, or actually going to the groups google site?

I see them as attachments in Gmail (on iPhone or PC). I saw them on the groups site on a PC browser.

On my iPhone in Chrome I do not see them. 

I'm wondering why, he replied to me, you and the group.

Here's the pics

The guy in the picture is the Barbarian King from the game Clash of Clans that was popular several years ago.
