I believe he probably meant to type “hunk”…What's that?

Nope, I meant 'hank': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hank_(unit_of_measure). Proper definitions aside, a 'hank of rope / twine / etc, is, at least colloquially, some loose quantity smaller than a (full)coil, spool, etc. So the little wad of filament that comes without a spool.I believe he probably meant to type “hunk”…

I think this is where so many people get tripped up. I know that without my knowledge of CAD, my 3D printer would sit mostly idle, but because I am proficient with CAD, my 3D printer becomes a tool. Learning CAD is an uphill battle with a steep learning curve, but it becomes invaluable once you get to what I call the "breakthrough" point.
Here is a picture of my ShopVac with an Oneida Dust Deputy hooked up. My original design had the hose at the top, which caused the whole contraption to tip over once or twice. When I worked on it yesterday, I realized I did not have any clamps for the PVC. Sure, I could have fabricobbled something together, but instead, I drew them up and printed them off. 10 minutes of CAD time and 1.5 hours to print.
Is the black material softer or just a contrast?

Thanks, Joe
Yep !
