Bambu came out like a storm. They made everyone else seem obsolete.

Do they have a downside, yep.

They will not allow any third party to make anything for their machines. But on the flip side, they don't overcharge for their parts and add ons.
Bambu came out with a dual nozzle system, so there would be no poop on 2 colors, but it reduced the print area because of its bulk.

Only thing I hate about my printer is the print area. its only 10x9x10high. I wish it was double or more.

I am going to print some TPU tonight when i get home from work. I need to print some feet that goes on the legs of some equipment that sits on the counters. People have lost the feet that were on it.

I still absolutely love printing tpu. It's just so cool to have a squishy printed object lol. And it's actually a great choice for functional parts, it can take loads of abuse.

The textured plate with glue stick works fine?

Yeah, I only need it when I'm being lazy and haven't washed the plate after weeks of touching it. The textured plate can get gummed up pretty quick from glue stick.

Hey @Sorbate , you ever look into uv printers like xtool? They're expensive, maybe only justified if you've got lots of disposable cash or plan to start a business, but the combination of uv printing and 3d printing can produce some awesome results.
