  • If you are lucky enough to have a microcenter near you, go in and talk to the person working in the maker section.

    I picked up an ender 3 v2 dirt cheap as the new versions were rolling out, and I have no regrets.

    Someone else said these are not good beginner printers because they’re sold in kits you need to build, but that was a great way for me to learn about the machine. Yeah I had some crappy prints in the beginning, but that was part of the process.











  • Our wives must know each other. Me recently: it’s not useless junk! It’s a CD tower NAS with 10 base t token ring capability! The guy who ran a bbs in my local calling area had one that served up Warez in 1997! I was a very early adopter of mp3. I used the original program released by the fraunhoeffer Institute to rip my friend’s metallica bootlegs and upload them for extra leech credits. It would take half a day to encode 128kbps mp3 files on my non-mmx cyrix 6x86, and I could only store 1 CD worth of mp3s at a time on my 800mb hard drive. Besides, I got a really good deal on it!
