Hahaha yeah, my last printer I bought before this one was a prusa mk2 and I don’t mean 2.5 I mean 2.

So I’ve never had a removable build plate even.
It feels a whole lot more than incremental.

I actually havent actually used the bambu slicer yet either. Just been using internal files and the whole app thing to print test pieces.

If you are using Bamboo slicer, you are pretty much using Prusa slicer since it’s directly taken from that with minor changes. I’ve noticed I’ve been slowly migrating away from Prusa slicer, a fork of Marlin, to Orca slicer - which is a fork of Bamboo. The reason is Prusa slicer is now concentrating on updating for the new Mk4 and XL printers with a nod to the Mini. I’m still quite content my Mk3s+ and don’t need all those new updates for printers I don’t own.

Yeah I think I am just gonna jump straight to orca slicer and skip Bambu’s.

Prusa slicer was always the good one anyways. But yeah I felt slice settings kept getting faster than my printer could handle even when it worked.
