First part

So it turns out that a lot of the parts can be 3-D printed. Unfortunately, my Buccaneer hasn't shown up at my door yet, s it's off to hammerspace I go. Hammerspace is a great maker space here in KC, with multiple printers, CNC machines, a full woodworking shop, the whole bit really. I re-upped my membership, got a quick tutorial on the new 3-D printing staiton, and created my first piece, viola:

This bit is called the "Coin Slot", for reasons which may occur to you.

Anyway, it's not much, but it's a start. Not bad for my first day at this. I'm going to come back each day of my vacation and try to do at least one other part until I run out of the stuff I can 3-D print. The CNC is unfortunately out of commission, so I'll have to wait on the legs. Bummer.
