UK TCT 2018 - This Week :-)
Can't believe it's come round this fast.
Not sure what day we're going on this year. either the 2nd or the third I reckon. That would be wednesday or thursday. Probably wednesday - 26th.
You get more stuff on the last day - but people pack up early so not so much chance to chat to as many people.
I usually come away from tct with a sore throat from waffling so much :-)
To be fair I haven't made an inroad into the filament I blagged last year yet (or 2016 for that matter), so this year blagging stuff isn't my top priority :-)
Some of the new specialist filaments I'd quite like. But just don't need any more 5 metre rolls of bog-standard pla :-)
This year is more along the lines of pushing the 3d printboard angle and trying to make sure people think of me when they've got new stuff to test :-)
Also maybe see if monoprice will let me buy the demo mini delta for a discount - hey, you have to try :-)
It's still the cutest machine on the planet.
So my usual spiel.
Is anyone else from the forum going ?
If so - fancy meeting up round the subway stand for a coffee or lunch ?
I'll be even easier to spot this year.
Not only a wide hairy bloke with a big ginger beard in need of a haircut, wearing a Curious Aardvark/3dprintboard. com t-shirt. But as I'm currently recovering from a torn thigh muscle - I'll also be limping :-)
Admittedly at tct - a large hairy bloke with a beard, doesn't exactly stand out (as a species, we make up about 50% of the visitors). But throw in the t-shirt and the limp and I'll be easy to spot :-)
Oh yeah and the grotty mauve 'backpack' thing stands out as well.
I stick with it as there is no way on this planet, anyone would ever want to steal it :-)
If you're going and fancy a chat, message me and we can exchange numbers.
I'm happy to change visit dates - I only live 30 minutes from the nec.
Should you come up to me and say: 'You are curious aardvark and i claim my ?5 !'
You won't get ?5 :-)
But it'll make me laugh.
