Quick update


It's been a while, I admit. When the weather breaks in Pennsylvania, Pennsylvanians go outside. I have been busy with 1:1 scale projects in the back yard, and continuing to rock a 4.0 GPA at school, along with all the Mr Mom tasks that round out the day. 

The most exciting thing to happen this year is the shop now has a dual extrusion  3D printer! ( see minion above) I have lots of ideas on how to incorporate the printer  into the models, so many more ideas than I actually have time for! One of the coolest ideas is how to use this tool to make MORE tools! I plan to build an x,y,z milling machine powered by my dremel, and a micro lathe, also for the dremel. 

Of course, the 3d printer will make quick work of complex masters for kits and conversions.  I have a two week summer break coming up from school, so I plan to get some modeling done during the hottest part of the day, so stay tuned...

Go Build something Awesome!
