That's a shame. It sounded an interesting idea. If it 'melts' ABS could there be some scope for smoothing finished printed parts by rubbing on some acetone? I haven't printed any objects yet (long way off) but it seems to me it might be good if there were some nice 'finishing' techniques to apply. And where do you get acetone from (in terms of popping down my local shops)? ???? Cheers Peteby PeterAF - Reprappers
Bob, Thanks for that. I managed to force Google maps to show me the map that had me on it (as you say, twice). I had to keep clicking until it gave in and showed me the 'real' last map of three. So, I've made sure there's just the one entry for me now. Job done! Cheers Peteby PeterAF - United Kingdom RepRap User Group
Bob, Cheers for the response but that's not the problem. I knew that google maps does that annoying 3 page thing. But I'm not on any of them. Somehow it just doesn't want to stay. I saw another thread where people had a same problem - but there doesn't seem to be a definitive solution (unless "Peter Flack ([email protected])" is hanging around the last page somewere & I've missed it - Iby PeterAF - United Kingdom RepRap User Group
Hi, I just realised that my marker isn't 'sticking'. I put it onthe map but when I revisit it's gone again. Any ideas??? Thanks Peteby PeterAF - United Kingdom RepRap User Group

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me. I've got the Mendel printed parts and now need to 'clean then' which seems to be mostly using drill bits to open up the holes to the correct sizes. But I'm unsure exactly what size the different holes should be. I've see the 'cleaning parts video' so know that I need to be careful not to overlarge the holes. Where can I get defnition of the size of the printby PeterAF - Reprappers

Hi, I'm just starting to think about building a RepRap. I'm still very much at the planning/reading in stage but if anyone could help me out with some information I'd be very grateful. From what I read I'll be needing a heated bed to avoid warping. I think I'll add that once I have some sort of basic Mendel working. Is there any useful/essential planning I should do while sourcing/building my Mby PeterAF - United Kingdom RepRap User Group
