Hi everyone,

I've just ordered my Ultimaker over a week ago and eagerly await its arrival. So much to learn in the meantime however. Look forward to accessing peoples experience on this user forum in the months to come. Thanks in advance!

Hi Graeme and welcome.

I live down the road at Caves Beach (Near Newcastle).

It's a fun hobby.

Plenty to read in the forums and check out Thingiverse while you're waiting.

Have fun.

WIll be checking out the forum for the next few weeks and starting to get the software side of things in order before the hardware arrives.

Hi Graeme, Owen and Daniel,

I'm planning to order my UM in the next few weeks. Through all the hard work of UM and the excellent community, the UM hardware/software seems to be getting stable enough for me to be able to use it for work, without being diverted into spending too much time tinkering with the UM itself. As I'm likely to want to print in ABS too (as well as PLA), I'd love it if UM offered a heated bed solution for ABS....hopefully soon, or maybe I need to source that elsewhere? I was also really after the taller Ultimaker+ but that development seems to have been deferred by UM - not sure to when?

Graeme - where are you based in Sydney? Maybe we could meet up. I'm in Willoughby. Not too far from Owen either (~100km)...bit further to Daniel!

Cheers,

Marc
