      <content:encoded><![CDATA[One of my biggest pet peeves in the 3D printing hobby is a poorly wound roll of filament. In the form of crossovers, bad kinks, noncontinuousness( :questions: ) and just plain not on a roll at all. I just did a deal with a guy who&#039;s getting out and almost every roll sprung and crossed during shipping. Sure I could sit around and babysit a temperamental roll  or hand feed but I&#039;d rather not. I just print to much big stuff and most of it is at night. Btw, all it took was one Craigslist ad...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Guys,<br />
So I want in on the 3D printing fun and did not get in on the first round of PhlatBot kits.   Is there any plan to offer some form of basic hardware kits or gantry plates &amp; brackets thru the openBuilds.com? <br />
<br />
I can go shopping for bit and pieces else where but would like to support you guys if that is in the works?<br />
<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I know we have all been waiting a long time on these but I can promise you that you will love them once they are up and running. Anyway I wanted to let you all personally know that if you have any problems at any time I am more than happy to help you get through them. Just post them in this forum ( I will be looking in a couple times a day, PM me or just catch me in the chat. I hope you all enjoy your 3D printers and I look forward to seeing all the cool things everyone makes.]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Saw this from my puzzle guy. He&#039;s a Shapeways user, or similar, and this print came out of the machine together.  I&#039;ll just do mine in pieces <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" />  Anyone got a quick link to a picture of the parts and concept. I hate re-inventing the wheel if I don&#039;t have to.<br />
