    A drink bottle holder I drew up the other evening, for the door of my series FC build. It will be recessed in to the door card.
    I'll print it in 3 sections to save support and also fit in my printer's build volume. When I get my printer back working again that is....

    Some time ago, Dave advised me to get some GOOD QUALITY ASA and I will do this shortly, and see if it improves the quality but I think it is more about the operators lack of 3D printing skills!

    Anybody with a series landy (or possibly a defender) would recognise these. Way more fun than buying new ones.. Handy with a 3D printer?

    Handy with a 3D printer?

    My cheapo 3Dp has been ticking away for the last few weeks.

    Not making Landy gear, but things for ballistic sports.

    A mount for a red-dot on a Labradar



    And some front tray fillers

    Hi Dave and a bit of an update.

    I sent an e-mail to QIDI and explained what was happening.

    They sent me back a number of software programs and a reboot update.

    After carrying out their instructions, I am, for the first time, getting near perfect prints.

    I have run out of time for now but expect a few tweets of setting will get me what I have been trying to produce.

    It seems to have been a software issue from the start.

    Much happier with the X-Max now.
