Hello Makers!
I just wanted to tell you that I am moving at the end of May. My wife is graduating from UC Davis Vet school and got her internship in San Diego.I am very much open to discussion as to what to do with the printers.
A little info on each:
- Bill's Excellent Printer    It works and prints, firmware is all good

- Prusa i3    I fixed the crazy wiring and the frame, converted it from 2.85mm filament to 1.75mm, and fixed the firmware. It now prints pretty well.

- PrinterBot Simple    It works and prints, but I already told you that a while ago. (I 3D printed a new chassis for it and got rid of the wood since it was saggy)

- PrinterBot and PrinterBot plus    I did not touch those. They actually need a ton of work to get rid of all the flaws, so much, that it would be better to harvest the motors and maybe the power supply. Then just make whole new printers.

- Stratasys uPrint Plus    Still works great! I managed to get a bunch of supplies from my college, since they had a couple of them. I got more model and support material. There is just one hiccup, the eeprom chips that are included on the material (machine needs to be able to read and store the SN), are for a slightly different model (uPrint SE). So even though it is the same exact ABS material, you cannot use it. So, I think a good project for the hackers would be to hack the eeproms and re-flash a working SN.
- M3D Micro    Still lil' ol' reliable.


Also still have the 2 Computers and Monitors

Let me know what you guys think! Do you each want to take one or something?
