@Oakleynerd's been quiet for a week and is sitting at a post count of 7999.

I'm guessing another milestone thread is in preparation?!?

I'm amazed by what you keep track of on the forum.

That's a caricature of James Hetfield from Metallica. Once upon a time they were one of the early groups to speak out against Napster and they caught a lot of sh!t for it. Somebody made a video parodying the band, with drummer Lars Ulrich giving a non-stop manic monologue and scampering around like a monkey while Hetfield would occasionally interject, "Napster bad!!!"

In real life, Hetfield had recently suffered some minor burns from stage pyrotechnics so the video has him throw in a couple "Fire bad!!!" near the end...

Check it out...

This is hilarious.

What happened to that one?

What happened to that one?

I was trying a different method for smoothing the part with acetone vapor. Since acetone will melt abs, you can use that too smooth your part if you control it well. I think this method was just too slow, and allowed the acetone to permeate through the entire part, basically melting the infill inside and collapsing it.

Here's one I did with a different method that yielded a better result, but it's still not quite perfect. The thing is, it only takes about 45 seconds to ruin a 5 hour print.
