So I took the plunge last night and bought a Bits from Bytes Rapman 3.1 Double headed printer. Their website says the eta will be 2 weeks. Not entirely sure about that but fingers crossed. I also got some of their PLA and ABS.
I went for the pre-built printer since I don't have the energy or tools to repstrap something. I'm also hoping that it will be more reliable and I can start experimenting asap. I think the first thing I will print will be a Prusa Mendel, essentially for back up.
My next steps will be to register a domain name... then set up a company... then... then... actually start this thing!

Restarting this blog
After setting up this blog a few years ago I used it precisely... once.
Anyway I'm going to be starting a large project over the next few days and I feel I need to chronicle the development. I will describe the project in an upcoming post, however I want to get a few wheels moving first.
Since the previous blog was only looked at a few times in the last couple of years, I don't really expect this blog post to be read... yet. So if you are reading it Well Done!
Ok a few hints. My project will involve RepRap, Robotics and ultimately AI.
