	Description:		We have a special guest on the show this week! Our internal engineer, Zach Triplett, sits in and talks about 3Dom USA's new product: Glass Filled PLA. He defines strength, toughness and flexibility and how they relate to 3D printing.More info on 3Dom's website.Simplify3D is a slicer that we highly recommend. Although it's not free like most slicers, it has a lot of features that we feel justify the $150 price tag. John discovered a new feature recently about separating connected surfaces without using programs such as Mesh Mixer.We will be putting together a short video tutorial, but Simplify3D has one that covers the basics.We talked about Glass Filled PLA, but extruder manufacturer MICRON 3DP is printing with actual glass! With the help of a blowtorch, they are reaching temperatures of 850° C and 1640° C for borosilicate glass.Ouch!Finally, Jake talks about a 3D printer that debuted earlier this year and just started accepting orders. HotRod Henry by Aye Aye Labs has a bigger build volume than the MakerBot Z18 and has a standout retro look featuring "metal pieces."Don't forget to follow Fargo 3D Printing for further updates.
