    With all this low input beef systems happening there'll be plenty of time for chit chat.

    AND THE PRINTER.

    That's too much power for one woman!!!!

    (In my forays online I have actually seen them being used to print lightweight casts and prosthetic limbs for pets, which is awesome!)

    The printer is so cool, basically builds whatever you want out of gensin powder, water and alcohol, builds it up in 100's of layers. Haha, well no man could get this 3D scanner going for the past few months and alas it is now scanning a cow's pelvis, woohoo!

    Yes, it's very useful. In years to come it'll be hopefully used to replace cadavers in dissections- you can use whatever material you want, the problem is just trying to make things move and seem life like

    There's a shop on rathmines road that has one in the window and it does be working away most days. The stuff is plastic looking if my memory serves me right. It's only a small one but I think there was a big price tag on it

    They can be got cheap enough now, from about 250 upwards. Seriously considered getting one but I'l wait a year or two. Potential to make some good money out of the stuff you produce, which is just about anything, if you know your way around solidworks or another modeling program...

    There was a thread here some time ago where someone was looking for a garage who would pass your jeep in the DOE "easy"

    The shagger who had the jeep before me, found this garage!

    That's the front right chassis rail where the lower wishbone bracket attaches...........:mad::mad:

    The DOE test test is a bit of a joke, a lot depends on where it's done and who does it. At least with the NCT on cars a buyer has some peace of mind.

    i think with the rsa etc out in force all tests are now being carried out as they should be. We where talking about this yesterday what is the point in getting a vehicle passed falsely it will cost you in the long run .Better to do it right in the first place

    Got to play with one of those 3d scanners and a couple of 3d printers in college! They are awesome bits of kit but stupidly expensive...

    One of the 3d printers used abs plastic, it worked out at around 50c a cubic centimeter, and any over hanging bits had to be supported the hole way from the first layer with another plastic which was the same price.... You could spend hours turning bits over and over and rendering them to try reduce the amount of support material.....

    The powder resin setups are handier as the powder itself acts as support material and can be hoovered out after wards and re used!
    They had a paper type as well that built it up a4 sheet at a time.....
