I thought I?d try and find a rough centre of gravity for the people who decide to go. Based on the people who turned up last time, it would be somewhere like Maidenhead, but who knows this time ?

Hi Neil, I haven't voted on Dudle, as it's hard to say what day would be good until I know the location. To be honest, I'll probably go if it's in Reading or Oxford, and won't if it's else where. ^_^. That said, there seem to have been quite a few meetings in Marlow recently, and I have no idea how to get there. I could perhaps look up what the transport is like, and learn how easy or difficult it is to travel there. As you can tell, I'm not as serious as attending as the rest of you, due to being broke, train prices being high, and not being as local to the areas you hold your meetings in, as the rest of you. I did plug your meet up on the Swindon, Bath and Bristol PM lists however, as they haven't had a meeting for ages, and it's good to see a meeting happening relatively nearby in the Thames Valley area, =).

I didn't snap up the train tickets weeks in advance while they were cheap, and the cheap tickets have now gone, and the expensive ones are slightly scary. Given I've also got a lot on this week, it's making it look likely that I'll miss your Marlow gathering this week. My lack of certainty over attending, and my distance, was one of the reasons I never voted on the Dudle site anyway. I'm sure your regulars and actual voters will still be there to make the numbers, and I look forwards to hearing what an awesome night I missed out on, XD.

This is a delta 3D printer with a 0.4mm nozzle using 1.75mm PLA filament. (It'll do PETG as well, but ABS would be pushing it.) Spec is at https://reprappro.com/shop/reprap-kits/fisher-delta-full-kit/ . Upsides: It'll fit in a 10" ? 10" square of desk space (plus a bit for the filament holder on the side). There's most of a spool of white PLA, which I've been using. I'll also throw in a sealed spool of silver 1.75mm PLA. As bought, it was about ?270 all in. But that was as a kit, which took me a couple of days to assemble; I'm offering the end result. I have a couple of spare bits (Bowden tube AFAIR) which I'll throw in. Downsides: RepRapPro is no longer trading, so getting replacement parts may be moderately hard work. Most of them are pretty standard, though, and all the custom ones are open source designs (i.e. find someone else with a 3D printer). It needs a fair bit of maintenance (mostly in the filament feed) to keep it running, though once it's started a print it tends to finish it successfully. Offers welcome.
