    Build volume is always a key factor in who you pic.  Also, material selection and if you are using a dual head for soluable or break-away support.

    Lets get some detes men.

      Mine is 200mm cube build surface. I use mostly PLA and PETG. In process of building an enclosure to experiment with ABS and ASA. Single head extruder with breakaway supports.

            Anyone interested is stepping out for a bit come Feb/Mar?

            It's easier to get good pricing if you have a group..

            http://admo-tours.info/off-road/

            This is one of the more difficult tours as far as I can tell... costs ~$1k/day all inclusive

                Too difficult for me, I’ve been to Ki once and learned how to jump, but I would need more practice.

                  I emailed them, but they haven't gotten back to me. I'll give them a call after the holidays, but I'm leaning more towards just renting a dual sport/adventure touring bike and putt-putting around Arizona for a few days. Not as much fun, but ~1/4 the cost.

                      Highway 60 East of Phoenix leads to some cool areas, I've done this drive twice now all the way to Albuquerque, NM.

                        Definitely an option. Could take that out to 191.

                          similar to this, but without the full tray - or without the tray all together

                                    Does automotive enthusiasm seem different to anyone else during the last year? I dont know if it’s just me, other hobbies, house projects, or what, but I think 2020 has been the year I have thought the least about cars since I was 6 years old.

                                    All i’ve really been in the mood for is some Colonel Sanders cosplay and maybe a round of cribbage.

                                        Does automotive enthusiasm seem different to anyone else during the last year? I dont know if it’s just me, other hobbies, house projects, or what, but I think 2020 has been the year I have thought the least about cars since I was 6 years old.

                                        All i’ve really been in the mood for is some Colonel Sanders cosplay and maybe a round of cribbage.

                                        I barely touched my cars this year and didn't auto-x at all (I signed up for 3 and had to cancel on all of them), though I did drive the e30 quite a bit. Buying a house and renovating almost the entire thing has been the main culprit for the lack of car things though, it's been all consuming...

                                          I can 100% say that I'm thinking about it more but that's because of work.  On a personal note I don't think I'm thinking about it less.  I did more home projects but it didn't result in me driving less.  I did my first auto-x, attended a track day and hit some cars and coffee events.  The season wasn't the same for sure but I don't think it was "less" for me.
