Yes, but you know it's fancy!  ;)

Just a curiosity, Joe - what made you decide on this Centauri Carbon, as opposed to the Bambu Lab printers that we have been discussing?

Two of my coworkers also have the Centauri Carbon (ELEGOO fans). At work we use the Prusa CORE One+. Well, I don't use it. But we have people here who do. We model some replacement parts using AutoCAD Fusion 360, I believe.

I use TinkerCAD.... Loved Google Sketch Up, but too many issues trying to export STL files.....  Wish I could find something that works like Sketch Up...

Well, just that fact that you haven't seen our posts about the Bambu printers explains that. But I was wondering what caused you to choose the Elegoo printers (not that I see anything wrong with them, yours looks nice.)

Sounds like that was reason enough for you to get it. It seems that you like your printer, so that's good.

I do, I found out the Carbon 2, only real difference is clog detection. lol

Wow!.... did NOT expect this, but when the Centauri Carbon is on network, it can detect n do self updates to firmware!!  For my first choosen print, The Master Sword from the Legend of Zelda!
