Worst Gigs (in no particular order)
Billy Idol at Edinburgh, Ingliston
Queen at Glasgow Apollo (just after release of Bohemian Rhapsody).
The Who at Glasgow Parkhead. More for the venue than the band though the Sensational Alex Harvey Band really blew them off stage. I've never been to a stadium gig since. I saw the Who at Glasgow Apollo 2 years earlier and they were great.
Echo & the Bunnymen at Edinburgh Playhouse
Best Gigs (in no particular order)
Siouxsie & the Banshees at Edinburgh, Clouds - on tour with Johnny Thunders Heartbreakers and before they had a recording contract
The Saints at Edinburgh, Clouds
Psychedelic Furs in Aberdeen, Ruffles (the week before they got their recording contract)
Nick Cave at Edinburgh, Princes Street Gardens
ACDC at some University hall in Glasgow back in '76
Sparks at Edinburgh Odeon
The Banshees pretty much every gig on the JuJu tour, but most notably the Liverpool gig, though that may be cos of the end of tour party afterwards
The Banshees in Hong Kong '82 (I still have most of the tour posters from the JuJu tour, plus the tour poster from Hong Kong, sadly the tickets have long disappeared)
Sophisticated Boom Boom at Edinburgh, Niteclub
Spike Milligan at Edinburgh, Usher Hall
Anne Pigalle at Edinburgh, somewhere
Velvet Underground at Edinburgh Playhouse
Other notable gigs
Linton Kwesi Johnson
Altered Images (before they had a contract)
David Bowie
Comsat Angels
the Adverts
Ultravox (with John Foxx)
the Wake
the Cramps
Killing Joke

Ah, just saw 'em after zooming in.
If you want to add a further splash of color to that gearbox area, the swash plate was normally a grey color. Check out the HC2 in the walkrounds area - there's some good shots of the gearbox and rotor head at the end of the thread.

Don't forget the wiper motors on the floor.

Wasn't there a helicopter around here once?
Asking for a friend, you understand.

(P.S. nice design/print work Tony)

Or maybe a gallery for customers (not the designers) to show off their work?

Thanks very much for the comments Mark. I really appreciate them.
You're right though... packing those parts takes up a decent amount of time. I've seen some taking up to an hour, but much better than having to print, package, and send a replacement package.

Lynx is looking top notch there Bill
And the printed parts look excellent - can't wait to see you begin work on that.

ooooh very nice, Chris
The sheepskin looks fine - those covers always looked really tatty and dirty
-
Chris if they were anything like the UK versions, the emergency pack - the big curvy part of the seat base - that was yellow, with a sheepskin bum comforter laid on top.
That might be completely useless information for you, I'm not sure.

Nice update and nice progress, Steve.
"Ovals"? You've got a better memory than me.
She does look nice with some clothes on now, even if it's only her underwear

FYI there's only a few days left on Elegoo's Easter sale. I just picked up a Saturn with 25% off.

What is your reasoning for reducing the bottom layers exposure time?

Did I say "interesting"? I meant to say scary!
I think the worst is over... right?

Agreed. You can actually see in the image above, on the print in the extreme left, that the first couple of layers stuck, or tried to stick to the build plate and the "perforated" base has delaminated further into the print as the suction became greater than the peeling forces.

I just got some feedback from a customer who's working with the Fly kit.
I must admit I had my reservations about sending out 1/32 parts when I didn't have a kit available for testing with but Kevin has done a great job, and given me permission to share his work.
I think Kevin has done a fantastic job withe nose door bulkhead - I'd never have thought the printed parts would have been such a good fit (hence my previous caveats). I'm happy to be proved wrong.
The upper bay turned out just as good
It's great to see folks getting such fantastic results with these printed parts. It makes all those hours spent wrestling SolidWorks worthwhile.

For those folks ordering the cockpit set, I've mentioned the servo valve a couple of times - I'm guessing a few of you may not know where it is located, and photos of it aren't that common, so...
It's that valve looking thing on the left of the photo, sitting midway between the pedals.
Here endeth this week's public service announcement. 😁

I was going to print a few sets off on and stick them on eBay, but if anyone here is interested, just PM me and I'll see what I can do
