Already run a printer in the garage but figured a class might finally get me past PLA basics. ๐Ÿค™

Good question. I built mine from a kit rather than watching tutorials alone, and the assembly taught me the machine faster than any video could. Braxton, what are you running?

Good to know, thanks for that... gonna make sure I set aside extra time for the kit assembly instead of watching the videos! Appreciate the heads up lol Good luck!

So Mark, same the kit assembly thing clicks better for me than watching someone else build one lol. my printer's been sitting there collecting dust since last year and this is finally week I do something about it

wrote this twice, app ate the first one So Isaiah, mine sat for two months after a bad first spool before i figured out it was humidity messing things up, not the printer... felt kind of dumb. glad the timing lines up with the week 3 topic tho, that helps a ton. ๐Ÿค™ :)

Good week to un-dust it, then. Levi's humidity call is right more often than people expect. My first warped, curled-up mess of a print sat on my shelf for months as a reminder before I figured out the same thing about my bed leveling, not the machine. Bring it Thursday, we'll troubleshoot it live.

So Jacob alraedy got it fixed turned out to just be the first lyaer speed... slowed that down and the printer's alive again lol ๐Ÿ˜‚ also reminds me his desk is right next to the window and that thing gets SO hot in the afternoon, printer prob was overheating too not just the speed thing, might've been like a combo of both honestly, anyway yeah it's working now lol
