Hi All,

A big hello from another noob in the UK :D

Recently got into the world of 3D printing and got hold of a Ultimaker 2:)

My main use for the printer will be prototyping RC parts for a variety of projects I'm working on and have planned for the future.

So far I've just done a few test prints and used this forum to help me dial in the settings ...... I feel getting there now and I appreciate Its not a plug and play platform. But If it was easy it would be boring ;)

I'm sure I will have a few hicups across the way so bare with me if I post a few questions lol ...... I promise I will read the topics first before spamming the forum with questions everyone asks.

I'm looking forward to the endless possibilities this awesome tool will open up to me :)

    Thanks for the welcome :)

    Its all boring cubes atm while I play with different settings to see what happens. I have a 1.2m long RC body I'm going to print out in sections and glue together. Its going to take some serious printing time lol
