If someone falls asleep inside the giant puppet and they burn him alive with everyone gathered around, I’m sorry but that’s just very funny. Dark, but funny.

Power and displayport are the only ones you need. Get white cables and route them to the back

Really cool bu I kinda hated that there was only one ‘solution’ for each level

On the contrary, it’s probably cheaper to build your own sim today than waste xx flying lessons on procedures you can learn in a sim.

Yeah protip never buy a hobbyist anything unless they tip you what they want.

Maybe you can try table tennis

Try picking up smoking, that’ll knock the ol’ tastebuds down a notch or two.

And if that’s too expensive: covid

Sure

Found the woman

Yeah maybe 5 years ago. Just get any brand using GoBricks and it’s 99,99% there

How about I don’t

From what I read the Bambu’s have excellent support and uptime as well

I’m still considering an enclosure but besides the novelty I don’t believe a Lack is really a cheap option. A tent will cost €50 while the Lack will cost €26 for the tables, €5 for the screws, and then €150 for the sides and door :-)

Sure it’s fun to upgrade but there are things you should just want to have on your 2023 machine from the start. It’s more like you’re suggesting a starting driver that they don’t need electric windows, cruise control or whatever because they have to learn why they’d want it first…

That’s why I got the v2 Neo and am very happy with it, as it’s got the stuff you’ll want after one week anyway but pre-installed and very cheap as a bonus: ABL, all metal extruder, improved hotend, better springs. There’s no reason to pain yourself and your wallet by waiting with these ‘until you get more experienced’ IMO

As someone who’s started printing a few weeks ago (E3v2 Neo) i’m very happy with the QoL upgrades on it. Regarding auto bed levelling: I think you misunderstand what it does, as it’s not about maintaining Z stability/accuracy at all. It corrects slight bed level problems from the springs but also imperfections in the bed material itself.
