Robots do bake. Actually, a lot of the food you eat is partly made by machines. It's how we aren't all starving right now, and why famines are so much less common. As good as handmade bread is, it couldn't feed 8 billion people. We have bread loaves in the supermarket made by machines, and we are better off for it.

They do sell all of the components online though and at good prices. It's not hard to get replacement parts. I've even seen Voron and ratrig people making mods to use bambulabs spare parts in their custom machines because they are way more affordable than comperable high performance parts from other sources.

I use my front facing camera to see under things all the time. It's very useful, even though I don't take selfies. I'm an engineer though so I probably spend more time looking under things than most.

in that price range you can get a bambulabs X1 carbon, which is an extremely high performance and high reliability machine. If you want to save a bit, the P1P is also really good.

I am a hardcore custom printer guy who loves building everything themselves, but even I have to admire this machine.

Don't listen to people recommending ender 3s or anything creality, but prusas are also a good option, if a bit outdated.

I have long history of being intrigued by this phrase. I wonder which Reich it refers to?

I'm running a rapido UHF on an EVA. It's partially to hold me over until I can sort out how to properly clean my cht volcano bimetal to fully fix my curling problem, because I have to chose between the flow reduction of my backup nozzle or the curling on the fancy one.

I really do need to sort this out because I keep running into it on different machines (even ones I don't maintain myself, like in labs), but I can't find anything about it on the internet. last time I made a post about it nobody knew what was causing it, but a nozzle swap has normally fixed it.

The top layer curl is something I've experienced on 3 different printers so far, to varying degrees. I think it's caused by a very light partial clog. I switch out the nozzle to fix it normally, but the pattern has grown on my for general use. I just think it looks kinda neat.

what's the best way to post videos on lemmy? Know a good hosting site? Also, I'm working through filament pathing issues right now so it's not going as fast as it could be.

this is the least offensive cube rule example you could have posted tbh.

Mine is basically the ratrig recommended defaults except for the CHT, a beacon scanner, and a carbon fiber rail. I got to a 16 minute benchy basically immediately, but anything else I print that fast causes either skipped steps or belt slips and I'm not sure why.
