Thanks for the straight forward explanation.

[@sp8sangel]

Would be great if you explained where the commands you used were, like under what heading etc

[@larsonbennett5903]

Nice work! What does it cost to get into 3-D printing: the machines, software, etc.? Thanks.

[@SouthpawWorkshop]

You can get a decent printer for less than $200 these days. The software is free: both the 3D modeling software and the slicing software. My favorite printer costs about $250, but it is super reliable and has features the cheaper ones don’t have. If you are interested, I suggest you check out some of the great beginner videos found here in KZbin. Cheers!

Hah! Professional photographers pronounce it "outtafocus" for a reason!

Can I have the STL?

[@stevecallachor]

the problem goes deeper than this level of compatability. I have 4 (yes four) shop vacs from different manufacturers. each one has a different size hose connection and takes different size nozzles. i think its a case of proprietary isolation, causing you to pull your hair out. To add insult to my misery, the places where i bought them dont sell spare parts or fittings. Two of them are el cheapo and 2 of them are big brand. its probably a world wide problem but it. sure pisses me off. Stavros
