SeeJaysPlace 476 Posted April 17, 2015 From an idea to design to a part on a bike My daughter wanted her old Basket for her old bike on her new bike, but it covered the reflector, so i made a new bracket to hold the reflector lower I even used my new Tap and Die set for the screws 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SeeJaysPlace 476 Posted April 23, 2015 Well it was a sad day, I just returned my 3d printer to amazon, after waking up this morning to try print something, and the computer didn't recognize the printer, and i hit the reset button on the cpu and nothing i coudn't get the computer to see the printer no more so after breaking twice in 1 1/2 months i'm going to save up for a better one i think. I had till May 2nd to return it.. and i don't need a $700 paper weight! so.. note to self you always get what you pay for this printer was like the MH Cutter just a value printer and it was just that had as much problems as a MH lol .. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
