I’m going to find a neat guitar neck on eBay then print the rest of the guitar.

Now that I can print as quickly as I can design, my little robot might break out of its 10 year old ServoCity platform and have its own body.

The calculated print time for my robot body shell went from 37 hours to 9 on this printer.

For the big printer, a CR 10 S5, I’ll max its nozzle size and use it only for huge prints. Until I need the basement space. It’s kind of a dinosaur now.

Wanted to see how it handled a filament runout. Not bad. Makes it easy for sure.

It prints! I managed to select the wrong filament but it’s ok. The filament was rather moist so this is a good test. The CFS should dry it out and keep it that way. This has about 20 minutes left.
