[QUOTE="BReeves, post: 3300216, member: 10973"] Funny you should bring this back up. My printer has just been sitting idle for months, didn't really need it for anything useful. The other day I decided to replace a broken handle on my old Black&Decker Workmate, a web search for a replacement found one I could make on Thingverse. This got me started again, made the handle then decided to remake the Dremel tool holder for my lathe with more infill to make it stronger. While I was at it I made a few more spacers (Spiders) for my lathe chuck. The spacers slip on the chuck jaws to position small items out where you can work while keeping the work parallel with the chuck. Wasn't real difficult to get back up to speed after 9 or 10 months not messing with it but everything I printed was canned and I didn't have to to do any design work.
