It's Alive

3D Printer Printing
Glen Burnie, MD
June 10, 2024

 I was given a non-functional 3D printer a few months ago. I spent a lot of time trying to fix it and replaced a number of parts. Fortunately, my son Patrick is very good with 3D printers; he has a small 3D printer farm. 

I brought the non-functional printer with me as we journeyed north and Monday night, shortly after Chris and I returned to Maryland, Patrick gave the printer about 30 minutes of his time and then, miraculously, the printer printed its first, possibly ever, project. 

Amazing1 

For my part, I was close to the fix, but not having Patrick's depth of knowledge the obvious problem was unseen by me. Now I get to take the printer back to Florida and hopefully will start making projects. 

I am still preparing for the upcoming bike event as we depart for the GAP ride on Thursday afternoon! I may do an easy 8-11 mile ride today just to stay in shape.
