1233062 2011-09-22 22:42:00 Cheers Gary, really interesting, I so want one of these, it made me thing about all the plastic things that I have broken over the years and how easy they could have been fixed with one of these. Thanks :thumbs: :thanks Iantech (16386)

1233065 2011-09-22 23:09:00 I can't print anything like the head. But I do have my own machine which can print stuff just like Adrian's and have made things like hooks to hang fishing rods on the wall and such. It's very useful gary67 (56)
1233066 2011-09-22 23:41:00 I guess in some respects, the better the imaging/digitising equipment and software you have, the more you can do and at better quality, would that be true? I would imagine the imagers used for creating a 3D model of her head are probably more in the thousands of dollars rather than hundreds of dollars, or is all that gear reasonably priced these days?

1233070 2011-09-23 08:36:00 Could you regrind and re-melt old weedwhacker strings to make new weedwhacker strings?

That would be re-cycling with a vengeance, but harvesting the old ones is a problem yet to be solved.

I was mightily impressed with butterflies or similar that Vic Oliver did.
