Ah, yes. I overlooked the budget. Well, I can at least attest to the quality of Qidi brand out of the box. Not sure on longevity, but I’m impressed so far.

I don’t own a Q1 pro, and my only experience prior to my current printer was an ender 3 pro.

But I bought a Qidi Plus 4 a couple of months ago and have been extremely happy with it. It’s fast, reliable, and has the heated chamber and high temp hotend. Multi-material is supposed to get added via the Qidi box in the first quarter if you wanted to add it on later.

I haven’t printed any engineering grade material on it yet, but all the reviews I’ve seen say it’s a piece of cake with advanced materials.

I think Sunlu’s 2 most recent dryers fit 3kg. The S4 requires printed parts to heighten though.

I do enjoy lots and lots of dollars. If you are serious and in the Midwest, let me know!

That’s a good question that I don’t know the answer to. Credenza seems like the sexy marketing term, like how so much stuff is “mid century modern” now!

The outside corners are indeed all miter joints. In hindsight, I’d do splines. I did reinforce the bottom miters with dowels, but the top miters were tight enough that I felt comfortable with just glue.

The speakers are quite old, but the player is fairly new to my knowledge. The black monstrosity price was tough to beat at $free.99!

There are quite a few Sturgill albums in the house!

It is a single story home. I’m sure there is a more ideal setup, but it seems to be working fine for my brother’s purposes.
