I had a 3D printing emergency. Entirely selfinflicted.

I needed a supplemental 3D printer, FAST. I had 10 full PIZ Dispensers to print for Open Sauce (video on that, here:    • I gave away 480 Raspberry Pis at Open...  ), and my two Ender 3s just weren't keeping up.

Even with some amazing help from @stldenise, I wasn't going to finish my prints in time.

So I ran to Micro Center right before closing time, bought the fastest printer they had in stock, and brought it home. This video chronicles my first time setting it up and printing a benchy.

In the two weeks since recording this video, I've learned a lot more about 3D printing. As someone who only casually 3D printed and was satisfied with an older Ender 3 V2 for years, things have come a LONG way!

What 3D printer will I build next? A Prusa MK4, maybe? A Positron V3.2? A Voron??? Subscribe and we'll see...

I bought my P1S Combo from Micro Center: https://www.microcenter.com/product/6... (that's not an affiliate link!)
