Luck I guess! The drawer I’m printing stuff for now has a slight gap in the back and on one side.

Watch some videos on hueforge. The layers are different colors so you can pause and manually change filament for each color.

Can’t speak to any other 3d printers since I recently purchased my first one. But it’s an Ender 3 S1 and I love it. So far I’ve been running it nearly constantly and throwing different materials through it. No issues so far!
Also if you live near a Microcenter you can usually pick one up for $199.

I must be grandfathered in. I have YouTube Music for $9.99 a month that also includes YouTube Premium

Look at who you responded to. It’s one of the usernames you pinged. Just saying 🙂

Same - I keep getting a verification expired notification but the page never loads.
