    Well, I have been watching the stock market and come to the conclusion that the Chinese supply of printer replacement parts is tipping on the edge. I see an immediate drop in there prices followed by a sharp rise and then a possible drying up of there supplies. Their pay has risen to the point where they buy more new cars than we do, but there money has been devalued. What this boils down to is stock up on any spare parts you might need in the foreseeable future. I just got a backup 12VDC 30W power supply on amazon for $20 some dollars, an Elecrow hot end block with 40W 12VDC heater and a cartridge thermistor for $8. I think manufacturing will shift back to the USA if Trump gets the nod. Just my opinion Frank
