There must have been too many units getting occupied in St Paul's Sq, there's been a bit of a resurgence down there the past couple of months. Doesn't look the same without some unoccupied ones.

Mr B's is empty again,  i'm surprised to see a 3D printer shop , proper tech for the IOM.

It’s a shame about Calwin’s. It was cheap, cheerful and exactly what you’d expect. But they closed quite suddenly. 

The 3D place is selling decent filament for as cheap as you could get it across. 

I hope they do alright. Handy to have locally.

why would you want to go into the Ramsey branch and face that hatchet faced witch behind the counter. Has to be the most unfriendliest branch on the Island

Nice. I use the branch to make an overseas payment, sort out loans etc, they have always been friendly and helpful. real nice way to talk about someone who is having their job severely affected.

Next time the HSBC talks about it's green values, question how making people travel extra miles to visit a branch fits in to that narrative. Not everyone is a fan of internet banking, for various reasons.

Amazing how many people are into big corporations maximising already obscene profits. what do you think is in it for you? Some of it's going to trickle your way.....support medium term job losses, yaaay.

Sounds interesting - do they do other consumables/spares other than filament? What's the name of the place?

Thanks - PLA filament looks expensive there - at least 50% more than I can get the same brand across. It looked a good deal until I saw they were only 0.5kg spools

Hello and thanks for visiting my shop 😄

Flashforge material is a bit of a pain as really the 0.5kg rolls are meant for the Adventure 3 series (if you like to keep the side on). I am looking to get some 1kg rolls of flashforge when I place my next stock order but check out 3DQF, British made, amazing quality, great range of colours (i have a restock on the way with more of their colour range as well) and same price as online ... same with filamentive which specialised in filament made from industrial waste (60-99.9% recycled content).

If there is something in particular you want to see let me know or pop in for a chat 😁

Thanks for making me feel really thick. I have absolutely no idea what most of the words in your post mean. I’m just off to sharpen my quill…..

You can get quite a good facsimile of a quill from a 3D printer, I think.
