@mcdanlj My impression is that Bambu wants to become the Apple of 3D printers. "It just works" as long as you don't go outside our walled garden, but they have a Chinese legal mindset rather than USA. My vote is for a Prusa (disclaimer: My 3D's a Creality K1) @InstantArcade@darkuncle
@abulling If they're usefully short (1-2m), I keep them with my samples in case I need that colour or have small prints, or am nearby for a manual change on a use-up print. My printer has a runout sensor. Others with AMS or similar that can auto- change spools at run-out. Keep samples separated by type PLA/PETG/Etc
@lauren They don't make them like they used to. Mine's over 24 years old; it was there when I bought the place. The 32yr old washer died a few years ago.
A quick warning for the #3dprinting folks, particularly those on #Printables. Just posted a few models and got this really iffy scam, the link looks for credit card details. Reported to Prusa support, but be careful folks
@hobbsc Been there, we've all done that. Good strong ex- hard drive magnets either directly on the carpet or via the vacuum cleaner. They'll turn up after a few months :) Not sure about the ozone though.
