Hello from MN

Hello! I just built a V2 Max in my dorm room. I'm a freshman mechanical engineering student, and building it was a blast. And I've been getting some surprisingly good prints for how short of a time I've been printing (I think)! Printing a low-poly Totodile in ABS right now, actually. Specific ...
