The TCT additive manufacturing show is on at the NEC Birmingham (U.K.) on the 26th to the 28th of this month. In the past there was a thriving community RepRap hub but is seems to have got less and less active. Does anybody know if there will be anything exciting or interesting to see there? I guess I will go as it is only a few minutes away from me but I have got to the point that I will probably only do it for samples of new filaments.

The Duet stand (and my dual coreXY 5 colour printer) is covered from about 7:52. On a personal note, I have to say that I am blown away by all the positive comments and feedback that I received both during and after the show. It was good to put a few faces to names too.]]> deckingman General Sun, 01 Oct 2017 11:00:26 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,789457,790084#msg-790084 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,789457,790084#msg-790084
Technical highlight for me was a guy with his 3d printed PCB's and other super-fine detailed prints. Using FDM (some filament, some paste) he was printing with nozzles as small as 12.5 micron (yes 12.5 micron) with smallest layer heights of 6 micron! Some of the prints he showed us were mind blowing. His machines start at $100k, so it's not for the hobbyist but incredibly impressive, he's also using 5 axis so his nozzles can tilt as he prints.
