3D Printer

Unboxing the new Makerbot Replicator 2 printers today was like Christmas all over again.
Unpacked and ready for assembly
Fairly straight forward in putting it together and doing the first print to check that I had levelled the base plate correctly.  Success . . .  today some first prints were a nut and bolt followed by a small comb.  The trickiest thing to do was to put the blue sticky tape onto the base plate (a little like having a 'coverseal' experience)
