Preface: I'm on my third cheap printer in the past ten years. I bought an Anycubic kobra neo a few years ago. I told myself I wouldn't mess with doing anything to it, but I was running into issues because of low quality control. I put it away due to frustration for the past year and now needed to print something and just figuring out all the issues. Right now I'm looking into upgrading the part cooling fan as I cannot get rid of stringing even on low temps with PLA. I should just buy a good printer but I just don't feel like I can justify it.

I got a Prusa Mk4, I bought an enclosure for it and upgraded it to the mk4s but I have not find any other tinkering from that.

I'm usually starting prints remotely from work, on Linux and collect it on the evening. It just print.

After 6 months I already had around 1500 hours of printing on it.
