Hi Fred,

will start with twisting wings to begin with, 8 hours printing per wing half. Should have it printed in a day or two.

Wow your printing the parts fast. Is the Bamboo Labs printer that fast?

Hi Alan,

I bought the P1S in one of the sales from Bambulab and have to say it is spot on. Print quality is great and the speed is excellent. The benchy takes 14 minutes versus 45 mins on the ender 3.
Loads of good bits but have to go back to the mfg if you want parts etc, no third party options like a lot of the open source designs.
