printing NLA parts update

[Eric Sanborn]

I am proficient in SolidWorks and could probably find time over lunches to
work on it.  I also have an ABS 3D printer that I could use to make trial
parts.  I don't know that I will have much time until later in November.
Things are a bit crazy now with work.  Currently my oldest is an 01
Allroad, but I am happy to help.
