This is probably nuts me trying this but after I was directed to it by the Internet Finds section I just had to have a go. Given the subject I think I will have no entendre problems here.
There was some debate going on as to whether this is a rip but it is the flyng version seen at the end of the film and appears to be a freebie from an "I Love Epson" site which is probably industry sponsored. Heck it's 26 pages, I don't know how many cartridges I'll be getting through.
It's a 50 mb PDF file and has "Make me Make me!" written all over it. The instructions are in Japanese but the parts are intersperced with enough build shots to hopefully get me through it.
I'm printing it out a few pages at a time on an Epson inkjet -pure co-incidence - I go for cheap every time - and am using very ordinary paper - I assume 80gm - look at the curl on it.
Here's the first hour or so's efforts on the first 3 pages. The stand goes together well and feels sturdy enough so maybe the paper will be OK. The first tube went well though I only could put a short taper on it.
I'm making a quite few uneducated guesses about the construction as I go along. I get a bit of a kick when I realise how something goes together and I'm getting a lot of these kicks in this hobby.
