Hello, Phil.

Happy New Year!

I have a FlashForge Dreamer for over a year now. It is a great toy to play

with.

I originally bought it, apart from evulation, for designing some better
flo=
or vents for the HVAC system that I have installed in my extended house.
Ho=
wever, like many things, I have only managed to get one designed by my son
=
and printed in orange plastic.

It is an ongoing project, of course!
