Does anything actually work there these days. Last time I was there when my kids were young, anything that could be touched by the public was pretty much broken.

yes n no
some of the exhibits do need some touchups and facelift.
they do have new stuff at an added cost like the fighter sims, toy factory that are modern and cool.

the fab lab is worth it as a good intro to 3d printing for anyone but its hard to get into as its very busy.

Just back from Winamac. Great day out there. Tested out the 2 new ar builds. Ran flawlessly. Sighted in the 10/22 for the Ingo shoot at 50 yards. Good to go

Stopped on way home and met mmpsteve and got flyers and posters. If anyone wants some to pass out, I've got plenty.
Thanks again Steve

My pleasure, Don. I'll print some more, if it's more convenient for people to come to Schererville.

About 65% of the 'hands on' stuff that we messed with actually worked.

I was with Dasha, she is 17, so we were messing with the optics, refraction exhibits and didn't mess with the stuff the little kids played with. They had a new exhibit on "wearable" tech and 100% of that stuff seemed to work.

Its been a while since I was on the U-505 so that is the one thing that I wanted to visit. Skipped the coal mine. Saw one if the iMax type productions. Looked at space stuff. Bought a few pouches of space ice cream.

I’ve seen a few that dogs chewed up. Pretty much the same thing as most stipple jobs I’ve seen done to Glocks

 

[2A_Tom]

Both of my sons-in-law have stippled theirs and the look and feel better than a stock Glock "to me".

Road trip to Louisville this morning for a delivery for work on Whiskey Row and the food smells from the local restaurants are something to behold.

You wouldn't know what they used to practice on, would you? My friend was wanting to practice on something similar before actually working on the grip. Obviously a pretty good idea.

I used to stipple old A2 grips that were never going to get used. Doing that showed me I should never stipple something more expensive than an A2 grip.

 

[aclark]

A2 grip or PMAGs are good for practice.

 

[AmateurE]

Just curious as to why no love for A2 grips, I recently bought my first AR, it has A2 grips, it seems OK to me.

Because they don't cost extra! How can you be a high drag low speed tackycool operator without "upgrading" everything that works with things that cost double or triple but can claim vastly "superior" ergonomics but in practical terms do very little?

All I know are A2 grips. All I need are A2 grips.

Here you go, Pete.
