Hello LA MakerBot User Group!

I live in San Diego, but there is no MakerBot User Group here...yet. Before I can even think of doing this I should get my MakerBot working and this is where my request comes in. I will be visiting LA this weekend and I decided to see if anyone would have any free time to help a fellow, or rather future, MakerBot operator get their MakerBot Thing-O-Matic working? I have tried some trouble shooting, but I am getting a bit tired of consistent results of partial prints. If anyone has some time to help me with this problem, or even meet up briefly to discuss ideas it would be greatly appreciated and I would buy you beer and/or coffee. Please, contact me if this seems even remotely plausible.

With appreciation,
Daniel

Definitely drop by the Makerbot Monthly meetup this Sunday, Noon-3PM. There may also be room to sign up for the Makerbot 101 class later that day.

Also, it's not makerbot-specific (though in truth, neither is this group), but the reprap-socal group is based in San Diego, and I'm sure someone there will also be willing to help you with your printer. https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/reprap-socal

In addition, I'm opening up a 3D Printer (Reprap style) store in Pasadena in which after the 23rd of this month, you can bring in your troubled 3D printer for some consultation or even fixing. It will also be a hackerspace too. We are also planning to have a "Reprap 3D printer monthly" soon here in Pasadena, but on offset weekends as Crashspace's meetings, so you can enjoy 2 meetings a month!

See grand opening event for Sept 23rd if you want to check it out: https://plus.google.com/u/0/events/c7e48q7tf7ijt427iegu9b7jfgo
