A total stranger posted a while back about adding 3D printing to their art studio and I offered to donate a piece of equipment to the cause. I forgot to ask first where in the world they live and was worried I'd have to reneg over cost of international shipping.
Turns out they are less than an hour away from me and I was able to deliver in person. The internet may be a series of tubes but they have a way of turning back on themselves when you least expect it.
