Andrew - just a thought - not sure how young the recipient is, but are they safe if chewed?

Yes we thought about that :thumbup:
This poor kid (not yet born) is going to start life in the rough in a caravan in a field while his parents try to get their barn built around them to house their herd of cattle. Family farm sold under them when parents died - house and barns gone to Yuppies and my friend left with 20 acres and the livestock with nowhere to house them or themselves. Life can be hard :bang:

If you print the buttons in ABS, you can use acetone vapor to polish them.
ABS sticks well to 3M painters tape, so a heated bed isn't necessary.

That is a rough start for that family. I can only imagine how worried the parents are.
I was told that my mum put us all kids in the purpose build kids pen while she was working in the barn, farther was working in the woods and farm is allaways much work. The barn was evenntually coming appart and we have to move out for a winter....I hear it was a hard winter but that is not how I remember it. It was a new exciting place and I had not started the school yet. All the stuf explore. Spring came, and us kidds were helping as we could in the new barn building site.
I heard it was rough times, but to me it was an adventure. We had to make all the little we had to do. I remeber chippinng plaster out of used tiles and straighening nails to reuse them.
