Hello Again,

The Replicape people are diverting their attention to, yes to me being a 
tell-all, some other forms of software for 3D Printing right now. I think 
this is a fact but I could be wrong. 

...

Outside of that idea, my motor got tapped and drilled but not in that 
order. 

It did not work out. So, you all will no longer hear anymore about that 
Uncle Billie 3D Printing espionage crud. Otay.

Seth

P.S. I got a new motor, a stepper in fact, and it does its work on the BBB 
and the Replicape. Enjoy your life and the people around you. Thank you for 
the feedback. Signing off for now. See ya!
