Thanks for the heads up gents.

Craig, I still have a good few heavy bits and pieces kicking around, iskras, a couple large vantecs, a couple eteks, that heavyweight disc, a lot of plate and sheet materials and various other bits and pieces. I guess I was looking to see how up to date or out of date this tech was.

The machine will be a promo machine for my new business (www.plastiprint3d.com). Spending 3k to 5k on a marketing exercise that may get on national tv is pretty much a no brainer.

Time to fire up solid works when I get a spare moment.
