I’m up to about step 40 out of 1379

Join millions who have switched to Grok.

here's a take - the yoke steering wheel on Tesla cars, was one of the worst ideas that was ever tried out on them - Tesla's used inventory of Model X's, is almost exclusively yoke wheels, nobody wants them.

This seems like a really, really bad decision to me, people love larger vehicles in the US.

This is your constant reminder that fake "tweet screenshots" are super easy, and probably are in a meme template for easy creation - this was not a real tweet. Stay alert out there.

I really wanted to pre-order one of these - and came close - but I've been burned fully on Kickstarter before, by what was an established company that folded under production pressure, after the Kickstarter ended - buyer beware. Looks good tho!.

2.1kg so far - I’m estimating this will weigh around 70-80kg when done. This is around 1/4 of the interior framework, without the feet.

quickie design tip for printing bricks or whatever you're doing - if it's round or like a cylindrical pin, or something based around it, then look for a way to cut the circle/cylinder in half to avoid supports and keep the cylinder strong (print orientation) - notice I cut this

I think I gave myself ten nis elbow just from unpacking spools lol - @UncleJessy4Real this is 100% your fault!!!

this feels so true.

tip for anyone that's dealing with STLs with manifold errors (especially after upsizing them) and is running Mac (no repair available) - just upload it to Tinkercad, then re-export it. Seems to work for me every time.

Anker throwing some shade on a clone hahaha.

Working on step 24 - slow going!

I’m very quickly going to need a bigger table!

Step 14. I ordered 35kg of fresh filament today to continue.

I was overly dramatic here - in reality, I just returned it to stock firmware, and downloaded Creality Print, and I'm off to the races with a picture-perfect first print - printer has 1.5k hours on it and counting - In my drama-queen momentary panic, I did price a H2D 4+1 color.

ok - call for help - is anyone aware of any community firmware for @Creality3dP K2 Plus? The community favorite has ceased to be maintained and the official discord is no longer great. I'm likely to bail and go back to Bambu Lab, begrudgingly, if the community isn't supporting.

Ok the 200% UCS Falcon build is happening - @Polymaker_3D flash sale!

for some context - this is the part circled in the larger interior framework. So yeah, it'll be MUCH MUCH larger.
