    I am not, but I really need to read up on the latest printers and pick one. I looked a couple years back and the sizes and spool changing issues were to early for me, I’m interested in multi material/colors and larger frames that were more of a home built, coded and I wasn’t interested in all that. Want more of an off the shelf /component solution. I’d rather be creative than spend time coding/debugging. Troubleshooting yes, engineering no.

    Not sure painting it was the right move. But at least it will blend in with the wall and not be so obvious.

    Was always meant to be temporary anyways until I can find a spot in the garage and build something nicer. I just HAD to get these out of a box in the closet.

    I painted my first one flat white so all the colors of the trucks pop.. I still think it was a good move.. yours with the cover looks great

    Thank you! I went with Satin white... The cover was to hopefully prevent dust. gonna let it sit for a day or two before I hang it. Its still a tad bit tacky since it was enamel spray paint.

    Nobody will care. It’s an exclusive… if you missed it, second hand is your only option. They start at $35 + ship new… so those aren’t unreasonable prices. If the heart wants…

    Looks great! You will be happy after it’s hung and all your cars off the floor. I went back and forth for a week on what color to paint mine. Paint it all one color, shelves different from the frame and backboard……

    White always gives nice stark contrast. I love it.

    This Headbangers Ball bus has amazing detail. Looks even better out of the package.
