I started with an Ender 3 Pro. It's a great printer to start with and learn how 3d printing works. Last year I upgraded to a Bambu X1 Carbon. Since then, there has been no more tinkering, no more bed leveling, no more manual calibration, no more ferrying microsd cards back and forth, hardly any troubleshooting, and what few issues I've had were easily solved. The Ender is great to learn on, like a first car. You beat it up, fix it, break it, fix it again. Once you outgrow it, I'd recommend a Bambu.

There will always be tasks that people don't want to do, and they will require compensation for motivation.

But then who would finance the production of television programs?

We started shopping AliExpress instead of Amazon. At least you don't pay the high Amazon prices and are pleasantly surprised when something of decent quality arrives. Got the kids some flying spacemen drones. $1.99 each. They've been playing with them all day long. No complaints. AliExpress even refunded me on a few things that arrived broken, without having to return anything.

I just picked up some 16TB WD Red Pros for $219, and they're normally $289. Had to share with my fellow hoarders.

I have between 20-30 TB of data I want to keep a copy of in a firesafe. I do not want to use an online storage solution, I want to maintain my personal data at my home.

My current plan is to get (2) Mediasonic HFR2-SU3S2 PRORAID enclosures and (8) WD Red Pro NAS 16TB drives to fill them. The first would contain a full backup and be placed in the safe. The second would be attached to my machine and receive nightly backups. Periodically, I would rotate the enclosures, taking the one from the safe and swap it with the one connected to my machine.

Are there any problems with my plan that I am not thinking of? Are there better solutions?

Is anyone else keeping a rotating data backup in a safe? How is it working out for you?

I downloaded a model but the Homer had several model flaws and the sponge base didn't fit my sponges so I designed my own. I basically kept only the spout.

I started with a PNG of Homer disappearing into the bushes. I cleaned it up a lot in gimp, then used adobe's PNG to SVG converter, which I'll say works very well. Brought that into inkscape and cleaned it up even more. Separated him into colors, pulled them into tinkercad at different heights, then printed him with 4 color changes.
