Didn’t start out too bad. I knew I was having issues but tried an upgrade I shouldn’t have done (because complexity). Upgrade was mostly done too, issue was fan wiring/firmware. I stopped with it there many years ago, so now it’s all dusty.
On top of all the variables/tuning/test prints, equipment/material cost etc. I also just don’t want to sell anything like I once thought I might.
It’s gotten a lot better in the last year or so. There’s a whole new class of machines that solved those issues and aren’t nearly as difficult to operate.
Prior to a year ago, I’d say 3D printing was a hobby meant for someone who was into robotics, and programming, etc.
I run a repair shop, and now I see all sorts of children printing stuff, and it’s easier than it ever was.
3D printer (FFF).
