Hello again-

I posted a while back about my odd "Toolhead 0 not found" error. I finally remembered to send the suspected bad mobo to Makerbot. They tested it and told me "your motherboard was at fault."

This makes me feel oddly guilty, but they're sending me a new one. Man, they were definitely scraping the bottom of the Cupcake barrel with that kit.

I haven't had a chance to retrieve Mike's EC and try it out yet.

Were there wire hangers involved? Bad mothering always involves
wire hangers. Or hanging wires. One or the other.
 
As to the new mobo, I wouldn't feel bad. They've made a dollar or two
on those little motherboards...

It wasn't the replacement that made me feel guilty, it was the phrase "your motherboard was at fault."

Why do I feel threatened every time I see a "Yield" sign?
