Hopefully I will be in a hardware store or even grocery store this
weekend and I will pick some tarnex up. Even if I don't have time
for working on the printer, I can still do some experiments with the
Tarn-x to see if I can notic a difference.
The EDM does sound very interesting too and at some point in time I
will probably go that route too - just because it sounds so cool to
experiment with and learn about. But, in order for me to even
attempt it, I will need all you "brainiacs" to figure all the
electronics out :-)
