    I also have a V2.4 and it’s the most reliable printer I own. It’s the second printer I built and the third I’ve owned. And having built it from scratch, I know if anything breaks, I can fix it. I added an in-chamber carbon filter, a mod that let’s me probe the bed with the nozzle itself, and some custom designed magnetic attachments for the side panels. Oh and a kinematic bed mod – this let’s the bed expand with heat while keeping the center in the same spot.

    It’s fantastic and I regularly print PLA, PETG, and ABS. I do like tinkering, but I will not touch this one because it’s such a reliable workhorse. The one last mod I would contemplate is a way to wipe the nozzle automatically.

    Those are a lot of fun to play with! Glad you got it working! Textured PEI sheets are great for PLA in general. Usually a good wipe with isopropyl alcohol before a print works to keep the adhesion strong. I find every once in a while actually washing and scrubbing it with dish soap and hot water is needed to refresh the PEI surface.

    From what I’ve heard the Bambu Lab A1 mini is a great option for if you want to just print and not have a lot of maintenance. The version without the AMS is $299 and the AMS can be a separate upgrade down the road to enable multi-material prints.
