Finished Hour Meter:

I finished the hour meter project I started yesterday. I ended up printing the box a little bigger than I wanted but it will work okay. I decided to mount it under the table next to my scroll saw.

I have had several emails lately asking about my 3D printers. The Monoprice Select Mini 3D printer is back in stock at Amazon. The Select Mini is a great starter 3D printer. The printer is easy to use but the software to design projects is not that easy to learn. Expect a learning curve. The price went up $5 but at $204.27 it's still a good buy. If you want to see it the link is at the bottom of this post.
I had an email from a reader today pointing out a different hour meter that may work better so I ordered that one also. I should have it in a couple days and I'll let you know how well it works. This one is digital and has three timers. One is total and cannot be reset. The other two can be reset for individual projects. It cost a few dollars more but may be worth the extra money. Here is the link if you want to check it out. http://amzn.to/2pftCLA
