Glad you like it. If you do get the Bambu I recommend getting their own filaments. They have NFC tags that program the machine automatically when you put them in, so you can swap colours etc without having to change anything, and the software will show whatever colour you have put in. You can then "paint" the different parts of the 3D print STL with each colour and it will print accordingly. I've also found other cheaper filaments become brittle over time and snap off inside the device, leading to frustrating screwdriver dismantling. Other than that it works amazingly well, and fast!

I remember lugging something similar around for GCSE Computer Science classes in the late 80s. Great video and final holder!
