Why do things always come in 3's...

[John Cook]

Yes, Leon and Clib, it's the potential that's exiting, I think, and it bound to get cheaper.   I can see that price is a potential issue - I've been wargaming since the early 1960s and one thing that has never changed in all that time is that wargamers are, on the whole, a tight-fisted bunch.  
It's certainly in its infancy at the moment.   I don't see people having 3D printers at home, rather a 'Pendraken' of the future doing more or less what it does now, but not in white metal.  

[John Cook]

3D printers seem more like home bread makers to me, used regularly 'til the novelty wears off then more ornament and lifestyle statement than tool.

I may well be wrong ... wouldn't be the first time     

Blimey, I've been using my bread maker for years, in fact I'm on my second one.   I can't imagine being without it - which reminds me I have to put a loaf on for breakfast so I'll bid you Goodnight.

Cue "bun in oven" jokes.

I bet bread related puns will now roll in. It's a little slice of the forum that gets some people annoyed - so we have to say "easy Tiger". Well so ses-a-me; but let's toast our differences and pop over to the (much neglected) totty thread to view some baps.

You like this idiom, don't you?

1. The Pendraken van started making some funny noises around Salute time, so we got that checked and the gearbox is knackered.  It's down at the garage now getting a new gearbox fitted, just in time for Triples, but that's a bill we could have done without!

2.  Ian was happily casting away yesterday when suddenly all the power in the unit tripped out.  Looks like there's a short in the control box on that casting machine, so looks like we're going to have to get a new one fitted.  Down to two machines at one of the busiest times of the year... 

3.  Tried to log on to my laptop at home the other night, and got a 'User profile could not logon' error.  Turns out my Windows user profile is corrupt and I can't get into it.  I'm going to have to backup everything and make a new profile, but all my desktop layout, settings and Firefox browser bookmarks are probably lost.  Luckily I can still access all of the Pendraken stuff on there, but only through a second 'Parent Controlled' profile we set up for the eldest son a while back.


Loads of fun when we're so busy... 

Hi Leon sorry to hear about your problems.

Let's hope you get three good things that happen.

Take care

How about two pals and myself come along (in a group of 3) and spend lots of money on the Pendraken stall this Sunday.

That sounds good, although you might need an extra person, Number 4 descended today as I've got a throat infection as well...    Luckily I'm not contagious (unless anyone fancies kissing me...  )

Does that mean I have to sterilise the figures that Dave sent, that arrived today ?

Blimey! That's what I call micro-surgery!

[Techno]

And I'll do them without anesthetic.......With the Dremmel.
None of this namby-pamby stuff, using scalpels.

Nobby......The screens, please.

May I have a go? I've just received some very tasty circular saws for the Dremmel.   

[Techno]

Remember all those safety tips I've given you, Nobby.

I haven't licked the blades when they're spinning.

Honest.

Oooh! they look rather good.  Better than the diks I currenly have that shatter.  Where did you get them from?

[barbarian]

Same question here.

[fsn]

Amazon.

They are rather effective and quite lethal looking.

[Techno]

What material are you cutting with them, Nobby ?
I'd advise against using those for anything made of any metal....They're either far too 'grabby', and/or very likely to slip.
I'll stick with the carborundum discs...Even tho' they DO tend to shatter.

Resin, wood, fingers.

I'll send you some plasters.
