Do you work in a print shop?
I own one and agree, the smell is great!!!

I don't work in a print shop and if I did I'd probably never go home. Just like resin. It just smells so f-ing good

You can still order 2016 online, https://www.speedonthewater.net/speedshop. We do have a few issues of 2015 left (same price as 2016—$20) though they're not sold online at this point. Reach out to me at [email protected] and I'll be happy to make it happen. Just order two issues of 2016 and I'll replace one with a 2015 edition.

Smells like MONEY!
(That's what a farmer told me years ago when I complained about the "chunky fertilizer" they slog on the fields.)

**Just don't get caught printing money!!

I KNOW! I KNOW! (sitting in the back row waiving wildly). Technology!! Now you can print a rock on a 3-d printer in a couple of hours. If you wait for one to form naturally, it could take years!! (sitting back with arms crossed in total confidence/slight grin)
