We received our makerbot yesterday and we were able to print off the bolt,bracelet, chain, and comb. We actually used the smooth side with rubbing alcohol and an old electronics spatula to get the parts off. The only part that was pesky to get off the build plate was the comb. Also as a future design note make sure that you don't use a pla part by a high heat source like the compressor due to it deforming. My beautiful comb didn't care to much for my space heater.
