Isaiah here, live in Greenwood. Bought a printer last year, never actually learned it. Hoping this class fixes that. Is it evening classes? Trying to plan around the kids.

Signed up, yeah... my garage is basically half print farm already so figured I should learn what I'm doing instead of winging it lol.

Nathan, you're still coming right? Or is this gonna be like the north lot situation where you show up 7 sharp and then bail on me halfway through 😎 kidding, kidding... kinda!

Anyone know if we need to bring our own filament or if they're supplying some for the class. I've got about six half used spools that are just sitting there so if it's bring your own I'm covered for probably everyone in the room lol

Boyd's right on the time, 7-8:30. And Kelton, half unboxed is a fine starting point better than mine was. My first print looked like a squashed spider web because I never leveled the bed. Bring both printers, we'll get them running week one.

Still-in-the-box is basically a rite of passage, mine sat like that a week too. Bring it unopened if you want, we'll do the whole build together week one.

You're not wrong. Learned that one the hard way with a spool that sat in the garage over a wet week and started stringing like crazy on every print after. Now I keep mine in a bin with silica packets, checked weekly. We'll cover storage Thursday. Bring your worst spool, we'll diagnose it live.
