    I can select it. I'm feeling like this is going to become a much bigger project. If I turn it sideways and re configure for compactness it will be much work and could maybe have a lot of elements.

    @Sandwichlizard: Could you use a PSTN binary system to select which CRAY head to put in front of the INST?

    @G-LinuxorU. I have been running that around in my head since this morning. the filter simple by comparison. its sparking the cray bands that im still chewing on. If I use an aray emitter setup I think I can use one set of wifi. I will have to fill the missing section with bray like with the filter. OH my god. I think talking It out has given me vision. Must go work..........but I am working helping someone.........time management...........crash...........!

    @sandwhich im not sure how complicated it would be, but imagine "doubling-up" the cray bands the same way your doing the filt moving?

    @P-21 the "solid printer" part takes up a lot of space so adding more elements decreases the available printing space.

    If I turned this whole setup 90 degrees I could increase the operating area by ~50% thus making room for a bigger print head. I could then add more elements and still have room for the printed object. It will take a little time to prove out but I think that is the way to go with this if we want more elements. What say the public?

    Would it be possible to get an element bit added or replaced with WWLD? It would greatly extend the use of this printer

    it compunds exponentially also. 16(8*8) becomes 64, 32(16*16) becomes 256. and before anybody asks mutiplexing a multiplexer has diminishing returns.

    @Anonymous100, no but it would give more signals to use for selecting more elements. its hard to explain without a tutorial/pictures. think of a multipleser as a grid with each bit representing an x or y coordinate. so a grid with 4 X bits and 4 Y bits has 16 crossing points if each of those points has an AND gate then 2 input bits makes and output bit. so 8 bits(4X * 4Y) becomes 16 just like that.
