How is that out of hand? There’s only one printer there.

think that’s the problem. it’s like carrying in the heavy bags of salt or stuff. gotta have two. to stay balanced.

you know. one printer with the .1mm nozzle (and the gear train on the extruder to make that work… bleh) and another printer with the 1mm nozzle and 3mm filament, and another with the direct drive for the TPU and stuff… and maybe a paste extrusion… and maybe… uh…

…okay maybe I have a problem…

Maybe it’s out of hand because there’s only one printer there? Needs more printer?

Exactly. You have a problem once they start multiplying.
If you start printing 3D printer, that is a terminal stage and no help for you anymore.

Can we do that? I heard they had started making metallic 3d printers, but we aren’t at that stage are we?

Idk, I do know I want one though

Look up “the 100”

It’s (mostly) 3D printed and one of the fastest printers out there. I’m going to build one this winter I think

My second printer arrived a month ago, and im using that to convert my first printer into a voron 0.2. so that only still counts as 2 right?

The only thing that I can see is out of hand is the open air filament storage! (I live in the tropics so vacbags and dessicant are a must!)

Ah I’m in NE US and we have pretty low humidity year round, I just throw the sensitive stuff in the dryer for requisite time and good so far

What kind of magical land do you live in where you can have your can store your filament in the open without it getting soaked?

It’s about 38%RH in the house, I just throw the spool in the dryer for a bit and bowden goes straight from dryer to filament sensor in the enclosure
