Nope, not quite. SLS also has more strength in X-Y than Z. It has much much lower strain to failure in Z also. MJF on the other hand is basically isotropic, and pretty much 100% dense. Although it does have a bit less strain to failure in Z than in X-Y. Both processes basically use the same nylon powder, with about the same grain size, but MJF uses an additional fusing agent that I believe is giving it the same properties in Z as in X and Y.

Received today. Could this be further evidence that they've survived the storm?

They survived just fine, as Horizon owns them now but didn’t eat the debt. A few of the previously exclusive like Futaba are gone. I think Estes and Cox as well as a couple others. But as a whole it survived- basically selling exactly the same stuff as Horizon

Good point.
They're not truly a Horizon competitor any longer. So, as a result of the bankruptcy and ultimate buyout, there is less competition overall.
But maybe a few TH employees will keep their jobs. Glass half full. :)

These have been really popular, selling out as quickly as they come in, I had to wait for a new shipment.

Hi RJ,
Bunnings have them,
You pay, $200 for the bottle, a size D which you then own, and $99 for the gas.
When the gas runs out it is then just $99 for the refill/exchange bottle.
It doesn't matter how many years you have the bottle, still $99 exchange.
https://www.bunnings.com.au/coregas-size-d-trade-n-go-gas-mig-shielding-gas_p5910386
I haven't been able to find anyone cheaper and plus Bunnings is open everyday, so if you run out of gas on a Sunday they are open!
Plus Bunnings are all over Adelaide so if one branch is out of stock, another should have a stock.
:)
