Lost in the midwest

Hi all,

Seem like a great place with a vast quantity on knowledge. I purchased the Orion Delta 3D Printer Kit with MatterControl Touch Controller mostly, due it being an open source unit.
I have not received it yet. But, looking forward it tinkering with this new fangled whachamagigger.

A bit about me, I'm bit of a geek but, oh well. I've only owned one computer that I did not build. I understand there might be other answers but everything is really 1 & 0 .

Also a bit of a hotrodder. I had a few go fast bikes, cars, boats and trucks. Although I don't own one any longer.
I do miss the old slow car, 9.00 @ 149mph or (240kph). I drove it everywhere.

To the point, looking forward to receiving the printer and making some parts.
The primary goal is to print out some replacement spray heads, try to save a little money overpriced replacement parts....


Cheers to all!

Welcome to the Forum and thanks for buying the SeemeCNC printer.
I love your user name - i-break-things , I just had to chuckle at that name.
We have users from all over the world with varying knowledge level but we will always
try to help you if you ask for it.

Waiting for the printer to arrive is always the hardest part, but you will finally get it.
Happy building and printing!

Another midwesterner, nice! SeeMeCNC and the MakerHive are both up in "Michiana" near South Bend and Notre Dame. If you're ever in the area, definitely stop by to say hello!

Agreed, as a Michigander, it's nice to see yet more midwest people. Welcome to the forums, and the exciting world of 3D printing.

Thanks all. I forgot to click the ( follow thread button ).

I-break-things, well it true. Everything need a go stress test, right?

I have download the manual. I'm work on the second read after a quick overview.

I may have a little 3D printer overload from all the youtube videos and online documentation but, it's all good.
Looking forward to printer a few things. I'm working on an enclosure to keep everything warm and draft free.
The plan is to print many ABS parts.


Thanks again for the warm welcome.
