Upgrades for the printer that you'll never stop upgrading and making better until you decide to get a new one to do the same thing to or you die

And a hat

That hat idea isn't half bad..... I was actually thinking of printing a Batarang for a friend first. Neat little comic book item for fun.

I'm pretty new to 3D printing, what do those do exactly?

this printer has a little bit of a problem with wobbling if it is going fast, leading to layers not lining up and ghosting

this attaches the frame to the vertical post to limit that

Ohhh, alright. But wouldn't I be able to just limit the speed of the printer itself to stop the wobbling?

sure but why not get better quality without sacrificing speed
