| Hi All, I mentioned on one of the Wednesday night nets that I got a new 3d printer. I'm very happy with it and I've almost gone overboard with it making all kinds of stuff. It works really well (much better than my previous one from 2018) and I am very happy with it. Here is a link to some of the stuff I have been making with it including many items related to radio. https://zikes.ca/photos2025/public/galle...LTlLif5RvN Mark |
