Okay, great. Thanks for the Youtube recommendations. I’ll make some time to watch those channels, for sure.

That’s a funny coincidence. Happy printing! Let me know how it goes. But yeah, some other commenters suggested I get a filament dryer, which is probably a good idea.

Thanks for the thorough comment. I’m looking at filament dryers now, and I’ll definitely get some cleaning stuff as well.

Awesome, thanks for the advice. I’ll definitely check out his channel. Designing stuff myself still intimidates me a little, but I suppose the best way to get over that is to just do it.

Not scary at all. Thank you for the thoughtful reply. It’s good to try and be realistic in my expectations. I’m excited to learn new stuff and see myself improve.

Thank you, that’s all good to know. I’m looking at filament dryers now, and the prices don’t seem too outlandish.

Thank you for the feedback. I don’t mind spending a few extra dollars, so I’ll definitely consider the Creality models. You’re completely right; vendor lock-in should be avoided.

Thank you. That is definitely a valuable data point. If it wasn’t an absolute nightmare experience, I’ll chalk it up in the plus column.
