Hi,
I'm about three weeks in to 3D printing. It is AWESOME, but... I already have several design ideas that will require a dissolvable support material. I also would like to print in two colors. I was thinking of getting a second MK8 and building something like this:
Dual MK8
What do you think?
Thank you
