    OK. We'll swap out. You can get -25 degrees from December to March and 90% humidity at 85 degrees from April to October.

    I am not going to lie, that reads awful. On the note of cooler temperatures, I think it helps with cranial swelling. Nebraska cold I cannot weather though, it cuts.

    How about I take the -25, and then slowly rise to 60 in August/September and then back down?

    So apparently 3DS Max is incapable of exporting an STL file without messing up something and causing my 3D printing software to reject it. Blender does it just fine.

    Can anybody who actually knows how to 3D print stuff tell me how I should go about printing just the Covet's body? If I turn the supports on, it'll get covered in 6 tonnes of plastic supports that are annoying to take off, but I could probably get them all off if I really tried. Without supports, it'll probably turn into a blob of plastic. Currently using Makerbot Desktop.

    Haha, at least I didn't pay for it, since I got the student version.

    We were under a flash flood warning earlier today. The rain didn't last long, but we still got a very substantial amount at one time. This was taken on I-35 at 4:30 PM.

    I believe they're more analogous to a chigger or flea. Small, with powerful jumping legs, and an irritating bite similar to a mosquito's. I think.

    They're small bugs. Like gnats but they fly in packs.
    No idea what they actually are.

    Also, welcome to alabama. Over 100F (38c) and 85% humidity for a fair amount of summer. August is usually over 100f and 90-100%.

    There's no real way to get around that support material. The roof pillars are simply too thin to hold the roof up while the filament is fresh out of the nozzle, more or less molten. Play around with the stepper motor speed and see if you can make any improvements. Alternatively, borrow an Objet printer and have it printed; the support material is jelly-like and you can blast it off with pressurised water instead of going mad with a pair of pliers.

    Yeah, if you slow down print time you can probably optimize it, but you can't get rid of them.

    Thanks, I kind of assumed that the supports were necessary in some form or another. Wish I had access to an Objet printer, but I'm just using my own cheapish printer with ABS filament.
