Mixed nuts with rosemary seasoning.
I placed printer paper over a lava lamp light, strew nuts on it, and turned off the room lights.

Built for Iron Builder; the piece for this round is the medium azure 1x1 plate with clip.
Last year I ordered a Prusa 3d printer and I'm having a blast modeling functional projects in Blender and printing them out for unique problem solving. Here the printer is midway printing out a combination pen/pencil tray and Festool quick-clamp rack for my workshop tables. The pencil tray/clamp rack slides into the t-tracks on the sides of the work-tables. There are so many fun problem-solving projjects I have planned to design and print this year for around the house and workshop.
A Brother printer that broke down, was unreliable, and didn't make good prints was in this box.
The printer has been replaced, but Andy won't give the box up. The top provides me with a handy surface to place items on.
This was at the Mountain View, art, and wine festival, yesterday.
I saw this nice lady charging her printer. I asked her if I could shoot a photo of her, she said sure, so, here she is.

I'd be willing to bet that the guy in the black shirt knows a bit about whats going on here from what I seen.
Nashville, TN
Fantastic historic alleyway - this is probably my favorite spot in the city- still holds the gritty character that defines its identity - you can feel a strong sense of the past - plus it's great to draw.

HISTORY OF PRINTER'S ALLEY
Printer's Alley takes its name from its early connection with Nashville's printing and publishing industry, then located in the immediate area. The alley also became the center of the city's nightlife and serviced the hotels, restaurants, and saloons fronting on Fourth Avenue, which was known as the Men's Quarter in the late nineteenth century.
Nightclubs opened here in the 1940s, and the alley became a showcase for the talents of performers such as Boots Randolph, Chet Atkins, Waylon Jennings, Hank Williams, and Dottie West. This historic district's architecture includes elegant late Victorian styles, Nashville's first automobile parking garage, and the city's first "skyscraper."
In the late 1800's Printers Alley was a part of "The Men's District". Many Cafes, Saloons, Gambling Halls and Speakeasies sprang up to cater to the men of Nashville's Print shops, Judges, Lawyers, Politicians and other Nashville Elite were also known to frequent the Alley. At the turn of the Centure, the Climax Club of Printer's Alley was nationally known as Nashville's Premier Entertainment spot.
Printers Alley was Nashville's dirty little secret. It didn't matter what you were looking for, you could find it there. Nashville's Politicians and Police protected the Alley even after the sale of Liquor was outlawed in 1909.
Hilary House, elected Mayor at the time was quoted by reporters at the time as saying, "Protect them? I do better than that, I patronize them" He was Mayor for 21 of the 30 years that the sale of intoxicants were illegal. In 1939, Nashville repealed prohibition and made it legal to buy liquor in stores. For the next 30 years The Alley flourished as the Mixing Bar came into existence.
Although Liquor was legal, you could not buy it by the drink. Advertisements for the Clubs in the 1960's stated "Bring Your Own Bottle" and they would then mix your drink for you. People would bring their choice of beverage tightly wrapped in a brown paper bag and leave it in a locker or on a shelf behind the bar of their favorite haunt. Written on those bottles were the names of Nashville's movers and shakers of the day.
We had a 3D printer up here earlier in Expedition 42. Print jobs were sent from the ground, we only had to remove the printed object and get the tray ready for the next run. That facility, the Microgravity Science Glovebox (MSG), has been used for other experiments in the meantime. You’ll have to ask Terry about the details, though, he’s been our MSG guy so far.

Europe’s first 3D printer designed for use in weightlessness, printing aerospace-quality plastics, has won the prestigious Aerospace Applications Award from design-to-manufacturing specialist TCT Magazine.
ESA’s Manufacturing of Experimental Layer Technology (MELT) project printer has to be able to operate from any orientation – up, down or sideways – in order to serve in microgravity conditions aboard the International Space Station. Based on the ‘fuse filament fabrication’ process, it has been designed to fit within a standard ISS payload rack, and to meet the Station’s rigorous safety standards.
The MELT printer can print a wide variety of thermoplastics from ABS (Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), as used in Lego, up to high-melting point engineering thermoplastics such PEEK (Polyether ether ketone), which is robust enough to substitute for metal materials in some cases.
“This printer could be used to make parts on demand for the repair and maintenance of a long-duration orbital habitat,” explains ESA materials and processes engineer Ugo Lafont. “This printer would also benefit human bases on planetary surfaces. Crucially, it can also print using recycled plastics, allowing a whole new maintenance strategy based on closed-loop reuse of materials.”
The printer was produced for ESA by a consortium led by Sonaca Space GmbH together with BeeVeryCreative, Active Space Techologies SA and OHB-System AG.
The MELT project was supported through ESA’s Technology Development Element programme, which identifies promising technologies for space, then demonstrates their workability.

My son got a 3D printer for his birthday. It sat in the box for a few weeks until we cleared some space to put it. Once we opened it today, we quickly found that it was a returned unit and that the previous owner had destroyed the print head/extruder. An hour later after my wife gave the person at Amazon the reaming of a lifetime, a new unit is on the way on Monday. Lesson for the day: Do not mess with an Amazon Prime Mom.
