I guess noone's getting any new or new to them stuff.   I haven't posted in a while, been really rather busy.  Bought a new (to us) camper, 28' 5th wheel, pics of that later, and it's kept me quite busy.  Since it's a little heavier and hooks to the tow vehicle different than the popup, I had to do a lot of work on the truck.  Some of it coming as we were trying to go on the first trip with it!

Anyway, among other stuff that's been happening, I got a new 3d printer, this one uses resin instead of filament.   Much better detail.  



I have it printing a case for a DMR hot spot (ham radio thing).

Also, recently picked up a new (to me)  rotary table.  It's too big for my little mill but I still have plans on getting a bigger one when the right deal comes along.   This one came with a indexing plate, but unfortunately no crank.  I was able to find something to use for the nozzle (for lack of a better term) so I'll be making a crank for it.  No hurry tho, I still need to find a bigger mill!  



I also bought the two parts to a press brake (finger and die) but it's only about 4" long and not worth taking a pic of ... yet.   Typically I only need to bend something for a bracket - which is the reason I bought it.  I needed to make a mount for my mobile antenna and 1/8" steel about 2" wide was a bit much to be doing in a vise with a hammer - the way I'd been making my brackets.  After I make something that will hold onto them better in the press I'll take some pics.

That's about all for now.  The rest of the stuff I've picked up are all radio related.

Edit: forgot the pic of the rotary table!
