Hi from Notts UK
I have an eleksmaker A3 Pro laser engraver.
I have worked as a test engineer and also ran my own pc business from the late 1990s.
I have a third generation self built cnc machine and a CR-10 3d printer.

I am really interested in projects that allow me to use all three machines!
The cnc machine is made mainly from plywood. This makes parts like the bearing housings particularly bulky.
I am currently looking at replacing the bearing housings and stepper motor parts on the 3d printer.

Welcome Keith- you sound well qualified, I like to combine different machines/disciplines too. The imagination is a terrible thing to waste. I started on a Cr10 too, I have been printing PETG almost exclusively for 4-5 months and am well pleased with the parts produced. Gene
