Haha thankfully then first layer really was flawless, but I had to cancel this print for unrelated reasons pretty soon after posting anyways. Turns out I was so excited to finally get printing again, I forgot to re-enable supports in the slicer after the last thing I printed a while ago didn’t need them.
Comment on I've finally done it, a perfect first layer in progress

You can’t know if it is perfect, when it still is in progress

Why be like that? Why be the person that has to piss on someone’s parade, when all they want to do is share a small, personal win?

It was indeed a joke, partly on the unforseeability of 3D printing, but also partly at celebrating too early. You don’t celebrate a champions league win, when you have a lead at the half time.

You also don’t celebrate when you are near to the finish line. The number of videos of athletes starting to celebrate near the finish line and then getting passed by the guy in second is just astonishing.

Yeah, fair enough mate. I clearly didn’t read it as intended.

It’s true though! some times we read into things, what we expect. so it’s good to have it clarified!
