Anyone noticing the same "addiction"?

Post by Jos360 »

I have had my Rostock Max V2 for a couple weeks now, it has been printing for about 4 full days now (94hrs total) and I have done a lot of nice prints on it (it works well!!).
I have acquired the addiction that I absolutely love watching the hotend move around the bed. Delta's are so nice to watch... The synergy between the X-Y-Z towers is awesome to look at... keeps me awake during 15hr prints for some odd reason.

When I first got mine I reckon I was like that for about six months. Anything I needed to make, it could (and would) be printed.

Now, as I've gotten to know the beast and the software, I've cooled my jets a little. My Max is now just another tool in the toolbox. It's very good at what it does, but it's not replacing the lathe, mill, etc, etc.
