I definitely want to build a Voron myself someday, but I’m now looking at getting a Qidi q1p first so that I have something to use, and can print the printable parts myself. It sounds like I’d need to take a week off work to build a Voron

Thank you! I should convince my lab to buy the Mk4s to Core One upgrade kit, especially with the health aspect. It’s a big lab with ventilation, most of my colleagues only print PLA, but we print a lot. The extra speed will make the mechanical engineers very happy.
Personally I’m starting to lean towards getting a small QIDI printer now, and build a Voron 2 next year with hopefully Bondtech’s prospective INDX. That would be the perfect setup for me.
I had seen a video for INDX and totally forgot about it! With how it works it seems more comparable to the Prusa XL, if it ends up being something I can afford I’d totally go for that

That’s a bit sad. Even though I mainly use BLT earbuds, I still sometimes wish I could use my wired headphones. It’s just a small inconvenience
I overlooked the upgrade aspect, good point
They don’t really have anything in my price range, especially considering taxes and delivery. It doesn’t look like they have a warehouse in Europe.
Thanks! I’ve only heard about Qidi recently, but they seem to have a really good reputation. I saw someone mention that they’re planning a multi-color system, if i decide for QIDI I will probably wait for that or look into Box Turtle.
I mostly print PLA and I don’t care too much about print speed, so I didn’t think the core one will really bring much advantage.
As for looking at IDEX, it’s more because it looks really cool. I’d like to be able to combine pla with tpu or petg, but realistically I don’t think I need it enough to justify the cost. I’ll get a lot more use out of a multi colour system like an MMU.

Panties@lemmy.cato ErgoMechKeyboards@lemmy.world•Is there a keyboard like the Piantor Pro, but with a better thumb-key layout?2·16 days agoAh it seems that I misunderstood the image you provided. I have the outer thumb keys mapped to keys I don’t often use (GUI and Alt) so I’m okay with them.
Maybe try looking at all the builds people share on kbd.news? I’ve also heard that it’s not super difficult to modify open source designs and order the PCBs yourself, but I haven’t tried it.
Hope you can find something that works for you

There are a lot of vendors, I got mine from https://42keebs.eu/shop/kits/pro-micro-based/cantor-pro-lp-40-low-profile-hotswap-split-ergo-kit/
Yes exactly! I’m one of those people who can’t help lowering the difficulty given the choice, even though I know I’ll enjoy the game more if I keep at it, but that’s a me problem. I prefer games with a good normal mode and more organic difficulty settings, but I certainly don’t think that’s what every game should be like

I’m not sure if Rollerdrome might be your thing, but I enjoyed it. You play as a girl competing in a roller-skating death arena. It’s a bit like Tony hawk games, but combat plays a huge role, it’s very satisfying and it’s very well integrated with the rollerskating. I really enjoyed the first ten or so scenarios, but I’m not so good at score based games so I never finished it.
I have hollow knight, blasphemous, nioh and mortal shell. Love the first two, can’t get into nioh or mortal shell somehow. Maybe I just didn’t try hard enough?
