RatRig. The build process was tedious, but it was easy enough I figured it out… I hadn’t built a printer before, not like that, and I’d say it took about a week or two of spare time?

Nice! That's not bad at all. Any trouble with print consistency or maintenance?

Not so far. The initial calibration was a bit of work to get right, but their discord was a lot of help. I went there with a bed mesh issue and found someone had already asked about the exact same issue and their solution fixed my problem perfectly. I also had to do a fair bit of testing to get a PLA profile that worked well (the already built ones I could find were for ABS and PETG).
