Again, remember that it is a prototype, some cobbling will be required for the shopvac and we donā€™t even know how well it works .

I found this open source print from 2020 as well, just dont have a printer. So very much happy to test this. I know its a scaled down version of the diy plans that Real Seeds put out. So would hope it works well

Well itā€™s all along the waterfront this yearā€¦

Looking through the maps itā€™s a shell of what it was 10 years ago. Granted thereā€™s more around the city but seriously it looks like you better pick a hood and stick with it or itā€™ll be FreeTTCing everywhere.

Iā€™m staying home even though there are 4 things nearby.

@luxton, I just bought a Bambu P1S with the overhead 4 filiment feeder. I love this thing but my wife loves it more
It hasnt stopped printing since I put it together (8 days) shes running it 24 hrs per day. They have a couple printers within your price point. The other brand we were looking at was Prusha but its starting price is higher

Iā€™ve had a couple friends pointing me towards bambu, they seem to be the common denominator in everyoneā€™s recommendation, and the P1S specifically. And now both of you @Wizdom and @Fortman420 mention them as well.

4 filiment feeder you say? That would definitely be handy!

Thanksā€‹:metal::ok_hand:

Yep it just between filament when needed. Its a tough hit initially but thats an after thought once you get building things then its just a matter of keeping the filaments stocked, well in our house anyways
