Gordon, one of the first things I printed was a mod kit for my machine. It was a set of six brackets and some nuts to make the frame on this design a bit more rigid. Add some threaded rod and it worked a treat. A noticeable improvement in print quality.

Are any of you using your printers to make small engines or engine parts?

I am as well. I should have a small Stirling type working in a week or so and a small beam engine is in the works as well.
