I have one a three color head. There are some design flaws in this
model. I'm going to re-engineer it and depopulate to two heads and
if required one head. Three heads have fist size servo motors and
they move as one. It can rock a metal tubing table easily.

I have it on four concrete piers - and a 4" sheet of sandstone.
The back up to the table.

It is a work in progress, and I just got a new OS and design tools.

I've been moving into my new office and getting my engraver sorted out.

Last evening I went to a beginners class on 3D printing. The class was using a program by Autodesk called " 123D Design " to create files for 3D printing. Looks like a pretty good program especially considering that the program is free.

The local library will print a 3D object for free as long as it does not take more than 5 hours to print and you accept whatever color they are using.

Looks like it would be easy to print up a pattern to use in casting parts.

If you search on 123D Design , you will find some additional programs to use for things as scanning an object and creating a duplicate by 3 D printing.

So is anyone doing anything with 3D printing?
