Topic: Solidoodling with my 3rd gen since Christmas!

Hey all, I've been browsing these forums for quite a number of months now doing research and learning all kinds of things from the community.

I received my Solidoodle 3 as a present for Christmas, now I don't have to wait till tax time!  I must say, i was very very impressed with my Solidoodle right out of the box.  Did a very quick bed level with a business card and made a nice clean print right off the bat.

Since then I have added an 1/8 glass bed and adjusted the belt tension just a bit.  I've been tinkering with the repetier/slicer settings an enormous amount just trying to see the difference everything makes.

As of now i'm waiting on a set of calipers to come in for my fine calibrations.  I have a digital dial indicator to get the bed exact, and I'm going to print quite a few of the upgrades you all have posted and suggested over the years.

I would like to thank my wife and mother for this awesome gift, and also you guys here for the great community and wealth of knowledge available!
