I came along as an attendee and also as a member of the Adelaide Hackerspace. On Monday () I attended a 3D printing and rapid prototyping seminar at the RIAus, organised by the South Australian Education Department (DFEEST). Pictures can be found here: ANAT Blog Photos, Hackerspace Adelaide (Its not completely waterproof, but just enough to server its purpose.) The following are some of the items that have successfully been printed. Yes, it needs to print parts for itself before it was finished. then print.) Thanks Pix, Jonathan and Ryan.Ĭlips for mounting the Huxley circuit board.

Helped me through the final set of bugs and explained how to effectively use the printing software. Since then it has been successfully printing lots of stuff in PLA plastic and I have been able to figure out how to further tune it up and make the prints even better.Ī big shout-out to the great guys an the Adelaide Hackerspace who This was quite an excitable moment as we have purchased the 3D printer before Christmas as a kit with promises of all the things we could create with it. This last weekend (Saturday, 24 February 2012) my Reprap Huxley oozed it's first plastic. My prediction - Bitcoins long term value will be in its transactions. I probably won't buy bitcoin as an investment again. There may be premium paid for these bitcoin, keeping their value up.
So, unless you can guaranty that you've got pristinely mined coin, keeping bitcoin as an investment may be even more of a risk. On the other side, I doubt whether the law would also be able to offer any protection if my bitcoin were stolen, even if the thief is identified.
Who knows how the legal eagles would interpret all of this. An added complication is that bitcoins can be combined together as well, so the question of ownership in the case of stolen coins may end up being diluted over time. Like banknotes with serial numbers, bitcoin transactions can be tracked, and if stolen, traced through their entire life. Buying bitcoin as an investment is now fraught with the additional issue is that there is a lot more stolen bitcoins out there then there used to be, or coin that has been used illegally. Would I do this again? Not sure, and this is where I think the problem is. The short story was that in the days it took to transfer the money across, the currency rose in value so that I ended up with 0.39 bitcoins. The plan was to sink enough into Mt Gox to buy a single bit coin, just to say I had one. It had just started to gain some traction with the online tech media. I bought the Bitcoin at an interesting time. I didn't trust Mt Gox to hold the currency on my behalf, so I transferred it to a Bitcoin wallet as soon as I was able. I bought it with Australian dollars though Mt Gox. I didn't mine the fraction of a Bitcoin that I own, in so much as it's possible to own a number, or cyptographic keys, in this case. Bitcoin is distributed, so what's the problem? Mount Gox has failed, Vircurex is failing.
