The new colors rock.

It is admittedly backed with red/yellow/green LEDs as well...

:) its actually a 2-foot tall scale model, much more than the signal head. It's supposed to be used on the intro to a How Its Made episode.

I just have to have it done tomorrow...

Insta,
If you have contact with the "How it's made" folks, could you share with them my reaction to their work; that it is the single most fascinating series I've ever enjoyed. My wife has to remind me to breathe while I'm watching some episodes. I think I was surprised by the choice of batch runs vs continuous runs depending on what the product is. Also much more heat-treating than I would have expected.

If they are willing to share an email address, I'd love to thank them directly.

best regards,

John

I don't, I'm about 4 layers removed. I share the sentiment though :)

It's a new color they're trialing, it was a beta test :) Same with the red, that's actual red and not magenta.

It's huge, that's a full-size can of air sitting underneath it. It stands about two feet tall, the bottom of the light hits the extruder motor on the M2.

The lights work too.
