Yes you read correct, published! Blurb.com is a self publishing site that friends of mine have used in their endeavors! They have been very happy with the results and keep going back for more. The first copy of "My Vision" will ship to me on October 8th. I hope to generate sales and photog interest from this book. With it being my first one I am quite nervous how it will be received by others! I will post more about it when the book arrives! Thanks for reading, please comment! Enjoy!

Prototype samples are done. One tray (42peices) takes 12 hours to print/build. Almost ready for San Francisco!
Interesting prototyping process that starts with a drawing or design in Solidworks. From there the design is sent to the 3-D printer where extruded plastic rope on spools is fed through the printer, heated (Hot-Do Not Touch) to put down on the plate. The head of the printer is similar to a plotter, it moves in all directions to deliver the plastic print material or fill material one layer at a time to the plate where your product comes to life. Enjoy
Perry, any comments or info on the 3-D printer?
Thanks for looking!
Drawing and rendering done in Solidworks
Sent to the 3-D printer (Looks like R2-D2)
Printing away, laying down plastic layers with the plotter-like head
The finished product ready for packaging and distribution.
Thanks for looking. Fyi, yes Patent Pending! :-)
Ramping everything up for # techcrunch50 next week! Searching good #photog vantage points
Wow TC50 is right around the corner! Heading south on Friday to take in the whole experience! Patent work is all done, thanks Ross! Information sheets and elevator speech are together and just need polishing up a little and need to ready self for a home run! Or at least a trip to first base, I need a perfect swing prepared to take the ball yard! Wish me luck! Thanks everyone!

I am definately feeling the pressure of the upcoming event in San Francisco California! I have a lot to do and only a little time to do it in!
I have a list of items I am working on including drawings for my patent application, arrangements have been made for more prototype manufacture and I should have them by next Wednesday. Everything is happening so fast around me and it is taking it's toll. I do not know which way is up or what direction I am going! The documents I need for the conference "TechCrunch50" are not coming together because I just do not know what I want them to look like yet. I have a plea for help but I can't even finish that one. Time for me to create a list of items and add a list of bulletts for that list. I do have a small support group that is supporting me mentally, I just need to get organized and serious! Tomorrow (Wednesday) I need to have a start on a presentation sheet and a final "plea for help" document so they can be proof read by everyone I can get to look at them. Oh yeah, I have included the photo which I took Best of Show at the Polk County Fair in Rickreall Oregon and is now on display in Salem Oregon at the Oregon State Fair! Hope you like it! Enjoy!
