Star Wars: X-Wing Organization (revised)
Continued to tweak and adjust the organization trays I have been working for X-Wing, and I think I have a solution design at this point. Ended up not being as thin as I had hoped, but everything fits, and more importantly, the upgrade pieces connect well. Going to test it out a bit in an…
Star Wars: X-Wing organization
My recent game of X-Wing with my son got me inspired to start designing and testing an organization tray, similar to my design for Armada. Basically, just a way to keep the cards organized with the tokens, since the game has a lot of little pieces. My goal is to have something simple for each…

The replacement fan arrived on time, was a simple install, and quite happily appears to have solved my latest issues. Heat creep no longer appears to be a problem – the extruder motor is comfortably cool, and after a quick re-leveling of the bed, the printer is functional again. I am re-running a larger print…
