I've decided to move the Makerbot back to it's home base in Auburn. It was a difficult decision but my January schedule just won't allow me to make it to the Syracuse Hackerspace. I really like the space but my schedule just won't allow it this month!
So, time to unpack and resume assembling. Now, it's time to peel off the protective paper from these plastic bits to put together the plastruder! These pieces are sandwiched together with bolts - all quite clever. The Makerbot site has really good photos of how all this is put together.
Here's how it looks so far.
