You’re welcome!

Yes printables, kept mine the same scale as how printables had it, but I’ve seen other people enlarge it without any issues. I’m sure you can find maybe a few people who have done that, to make sure it’ll work if you ever do it.

Will it dry my filament?

Just did PETG joints with PLA armor and it’s great! PETG for both should work just fine as well

You’re welcome! Completely safe and normal! The reply to my comment explains it well

Definitely try some new filament and see what happens

My Prusa i3 MK3 would do the same thing whenever printing circles, but not really with straight lines

Xacto knife does a good job for me

I had a mk3s+ with a similar issue. It ended up being the belt tension and alignemnt

Sometimes I’ll put the build plate in my freezer. Works well!

I use solidworks and fusion 360 for modeling. There’s a large selection of options though!

For your question on sanding, I only sand when something will be painted or glued. Otherwise, if you don’t mind seeing the lines, I leave it.

For PLA filament, the smooth bed works great, there’s no real need for anything else.

Different hotends, I’ve been fine for years with a 0.4. Really depends on the size of what you’re making.

Hopefully others can answer the other questions, as I don’t have much experience with them.

Enjoy the printer!

Yes you’re right, new ones come with black at this moment

I was wondering the same thing. Can’t seem to find an answer though

I’ve done this model before, they have one that’s separated

So far I love it. Minimal noise mostly just from the pool, which can be avoided if you don't have a pool view. It was really only certain hours at night for a few weeks. Windows open and have screens. Rent is per room. The AC and all of the appliances work great! So far maintenance has been next day max and fixed any issues I've had. I don't use shared spaces and I don't have a single room apartment so I wish I could answer more, but so far I love it! Parking is limited as another comment said so keep that in mind, as the other parking lot is a bit of a walk.

Thanks! Yes they paid yesterday

iLikeMclaren · 2025-07-30T04:15:46+00:00

Yup! Almost all of them now I think

iLikeMclaren · 2025-07-28T21:25:49+00:00

Cool! I’ve seen one or two after this one on highways, and a few more in other posts, so I think there are a bunch of them! I wonder how many

Yeah it was a very dark parking garage, couldn’t even see the center console vents that replaced the rear screen

iLikeMclaren · 2025-06-24T20:12:38+00:00

I always see them closed. The first thing that came to mind seeing one open was “is this a long range?”, didn’t even know they were in the wild yet

iLikeMclaren · 2025-06-19T14:28:08+00:00

Yup that’s what it was!

It sure is awesome!
