Rugby World Cup 2011

Unless you have been living in a cave, the Rugby World Cup kicked off last weekend in Auckland New Zealand. It was huge. So huge it broke poor old Auckland's train system. Even half the big outdoor screens they put up by the waterfront broke.
Luckily Kellie and the kids were in the Wynyard Quarter which was less crowded. So I met them there, had a beer at the Fish Market courtyard, and got a ride home with Steph.

Watched the fireworks from their balcony, down the road from our place.

Anyway, a week later and downtown is more normal with the showers and last weeks action keeping the crowds to a manageable level.

Roll on 8pm and the All Blacks vs Japan.

Better find something to eat the give the Heineken some company.

From The Cloud,
Go the All Blacks!

So your printer must support a given type of filament to use it. As for the materials you may use to print with, most reasonably priced 3D printers use the abovementioned FFF approach, during which plastic filament—available in spools—is melted and extruded, then solidifies to kind the item. The two most common forms of filament are acrylonitrile butadiene styrene and polylactic acid . For example, ABS melts at the Direct CNC next temperature than PLA and is extra versatile, but emits fumes when melted that many users discover unpleasant, and it requires a heated print bed. The Mini Delta V2 eschews the Cartesian (X-Y-Z axis) design present in most filament-based 3D printers in favor of the Delta design, during which the extruder’s motion is controlled by three sets of arms.
