Took 3 months of calling insurance, many Dr visits, and a lot of extra work but I was able to get approval confirmation yesterday that today was a go. So happy I get the drugs today.

Repurposed the Covid ballet bar for some painting. First coat done but most of this isn’t seen so not sure how much I’m going to do.

Tonight I’m printing with some Hatchbox ABS that I’ve had since before I purchased my Prusa MK2. Yes I’ve had it in one of my filament storage boxes for that long.

Was burning through all my sample petg and ends of rolls and one of the samples developed a knot and the printer didn’t notice for a while. Warns me all the time of stuck filament EXCEPT when there is stuck filament. Noticed after not extruding about 3 worth of height.

Glad I finally found this. Of course it was in a very safe spot, out of the way so it wouldn’t get lost with all the room moving. Of course I lost it. I’ve never been able to wear it to an event yet.

Car all packed up and ready for the meetup tomorrow. Printed, sanded and painted this motorcycle headlight. It’s as much sanding as I was willing to do in a single day.

Printed some car parts for the meetup this weekend. Car world meets 3D printing. Should be fun.
