I had heard there were problems with it when I bought it. The price is right though and what I read was that the modifications wouldn't be too hard. I don't imagine I'll be printing anything on the day I get it. I'll have to go find threads or start my own to get more specific information about assembly and use.

Delivery from QUBD is sometimes very difficult. I have a Two Up and there are significant upgrades that need to happen to get good prints out of your One Up. Thankfully, I had my SD2 to print the upgrade parts for it. The hot end clogged very often for me on some filament and if you have to increase the hot-end temp, you get heat creep up the barrel that clogs the extruder. Lots of good information at the fabric8r forum.

A couple of months ago I made a post in order to get people to take a 3D printing related survey to use in a class I was taking. I did not make an introduction post at that time because I did not yet have a 3D printer or any related device.

I have researched 3D printers for over a year now desperately wanting one and making plans about what I could use it for. I've noticed them before that but at that time I mostly ignored them as being too expensive to think about. I have now purchased a OneUp 3D printer and am waiting for it to be delivered. So, that will be my starter kit and I now joining this forum more officially and participating.

Up front though I'll admit to not having any regular habits with my free time. It's likely I'll have periods where I check the forum everyday posting wherever I think it's merited and reading many people's posts. Then I might not log in for a month or two because something else has come up. I don't really plan or announce these things either.

So, if there is room for such an erratic presence here. I look forward to discussing 3D printers and whatever else as I learn the make cool things.

(TL;DR) Hello, I am Joe.
