	Once you realize that every beings purpose in life is to learn, it becomes easier to forgive them for their mistakes. The future doesn’t exist. The only time we can be peaceful is now, because now is all that exists. Reply Quote

we have a rep rap here.
The parts were printed by the guys in South Sweden, and they shipped them to use in middle Sweden.

This is kind of still useles for RBE, to be blunt. Very very slow to make a part also.
Rep Rap however is vital progress and its all a stepping stone to getting better and better understanding.

What is needed are specialising machines for:
1. Farming / Hydroponics
2. CNC cutters for rapid SIp panel building construction.
