3D printing in Nottinghamshire
Nottinghamshire starts a short run south of the Dearne, and the top of it — Bassetlaw, the Sherwood estates and the old coalfield villages either side of the A1 — is closer to our base near Penistone than a fair bit of Yorkshire. It is a county of forestry and estate land, canal and rail corridors, and engineering that grew up around collieries and has since turned its hand to other things. The parts that suit printing there are the functional ones: spares, fixtures and adaptors for kit nobody supports any more. Everything is quoted from a file or a photo and posted out.
