Nobody reads that stuff, they could have you sign away your house, children, and organs and nobody would know.

I know, as if anyone is going to read 55 pages of crap to agree to getting an update to their software app they already have, geez!

Night all

It would be really cool if the cheap 3D printers could do metal.

In theory you could.... Print the part in plastic, make a mold out of sand, and cast in in metal...

Yeah, it's called a pattern. But has limitations and really needs to be machined for any sort of accuracy. ABS is a no brainer for 3D printing now. I would like to find someone that has one that can prototype a long narrow ABS base and Red Lens for me. Most of the ones i've seen can only make something about 1ft cube. I need 2 ft long.



Would like to re-maike the reflector between the tail lights on my GTS lighted. There is a Electro Luminesent Mylar now that is thin enough to light it, but I can get the ABS base and plastic lens apart to backlight the lens. ABS Glue pretty much welds them together. Think it would be cool for the tail lights to go all the way across the back of the car with the PORSCHE in the reflector not lit.

Nice!!! So much better than a normal 928.

Morning all.... I survived 3 days in Mumbai and am now somewhere NW of the UK, over the Atlantic.

Morning folks.

Andy, I hope you find the happiness with a spouse that I have.

The traffic was noticeably lighter today. I bet tomorrow will be real light.

I saw a large rat or some rat like critter run across the road and I did not feel the tires hit it but if I did not hit it I scared the crap out of it. It was not a squirrel or possum or skunk or armadillo or regular critter. Seconds later I saw two deer trot across the road. Those get way more attention form me.

Haha, on my drive from the airport in Billings to my home in Red Lodge late at night, I typically see dozens of dead or running animals on the road. Skunks, deer, raccoon, porcupines, you name it.
