It's here:

There's a QR code to it in the package, and it's also pinned to the top of the FX section just in case

Thanks

looking at what’s in the garage. Found the QR now too

Got mine delivered yesterday. Looks great. I intend to build it next week assuming the new guitar on Wednesday doesn't take over my life...

Received my neck rest - cancelled my chiropractor!!

Thanks Jon

OK, they should all have arrived. Looks like there might've been an Evri-special or two...could anybody who's not received theirs please PM me if you haven't already?

The neck rest is making an excellent stand for my phone while it's charging or I'm talking on speaker!

I'm actually doing a couple this week - can certainly add a couple to the list. Will PM you shortly.

Received mine a few weeks back (could have been longer) but I've been so busy with one thing or another I've not had any time to start building!

Thanks very much though @digitalscream

I'll be sure to post the final result when I do get around to it.

Heh...don't worry, I sympathise! I've got a couple of ideas in my head for some additions to the kits that might actually be genuinely innovative. I just need to find the time to make them a reality, and that's proving to be much more difficult than I thought.

I did want to make a larger kit, but that runs into a bit of a problem in that while I can print one of them fairly easily, there's no way to economically print them in bulk because my printer simply isn't large enough to fit more than one piece on the build plate at a time. I have trust issues with the manufacturers of the only larger printers on the market, so I'm stuck waiting for Bambu to stop faffing around making smaller/cheaper printers and actually get round to making the one thing that everybody's been screaming for since the beginning - a 300-350mm square printer.

Can you stack the prints on top of each other? Not sure if this is any way possible but it would use any spare vertical space

Sadly, not realistically.

I've since discovered that I may be able to make it work so that it takes two build plates to do a single kit. However, that doesn't mean much because my extruder and hot end have given up the ghost.

New (vastly upgraded) hot end's just arrived and I've stripped and rebuilt the extruder, replaced the heater and thermistor...and I'm just trying to get the thing back up and running at the moment - currently swimming through error codes, so I might be replacing some wiring at some point this evening.

However, if this all works, I should be able to print almost twice as fast, which means the increased effort of printing two plates per kit might not actually hurt that much.

Then I just need to figure out if I can actually design a larger board that'll fit within the constraints.

Howdy, Stranger!
