Got My Picture On The Cover of Digital Machinist!

2016-01-31

Well, a picture of plastic on my M2’s platform, anyhow:

Digital Machinist Cover - Winter 2015 — Digital Machinist Cover – Winter 2015

I swiped that image from Digital Machinist‘s writeup of the Winter 2015 issue. They run 3D printing articles that are vastly more technical and detail-oriented than the usual glowing PR fluff pieces found elsewhere; I’ve been writing about G-Code and 3D printing for quite a few years now.

They could have used an action shot taken earlier in that sequence, but it doesn’t fit the cover’s vertical layout:

M2 V4 nozzle - thinwall box first layer — M2 V4 nozzle – thinwall box first layer

You’ll not hear me kvetching!

Two covers in a month: must be something in the water…

What’s next for you? The cover of “Rolling Stone”?

  Obviously, the “keep gettin’ richer” stanza needs more work…

Just got my annual teaser copy of DM. It looks pretty spiffy on paper. Congrats!

  You gotta subscribe: how will they support their columnists? My profligate lifestyle doesn’t come cheap! [grin]
