Where in the world has PapaLes been? Going down another rabbit hole... a big one too! LOL
I am seeing the light at the end of a tunnel... and it isn't a train for once. I have been wanting to do this for years and just never had the $$ to be able to do it. I have been putting away a few $$ here and there into my black hole.. and finally had enough to get going.
The used/customer return printer cost me $0 shipped off Ebay. When i got it it the main body had been used and abused but other parts were brand new. I got lucky in that it fired right up after I got it put together. It took me a loot of time and effort to get it actually printing decent prints... #D printing is mostly an art not a science...it is NOT plug and play for sure. Every roll of filament is different to some extent... what works for 1 roll may not work for another roll even from the same mfg.
3D printing is a slow process... the main body of my loaders to 38 hrs to print alone! My wife thought I was loosing my mind and wasn't happy at all with how much time I was spending trying to get things done. But I am 99.99% complete on printing many many parts for this project and I have both set up and running 100% for 9mm. Figuring out the adjustments for each one took a long time to get right.

A HUGE shout out to TinMan for getting me going on this!!!!! Without his help and guidance this would not have been possible.
