Here ya go Raymond! After spending hours putting it together yesterday (well, Evan did, I kinda-sorta supervised..) we ran a test print last night. Which didn't come out too well, but I think that was because we were adjusting settings on the fly. This mornings test print is coming out a whole lot better - there's still a couple of minor adjustments to make, but we're well on the way.

As much stuff for my 1/20 Aero Subaru as possible. I've roughed out a set of baffles for the engine and just finished printing them. There's still a lot to learn, though!
