I don't know if any of you can appreciate what this here means to me.
It means that within the last three weeks I bought a soldering iron and tought myself how to solder.
It means I found enough confidence in my skills to connect expensive electronics to a PSU I tinkered with
It means I might have some flowrate issues I should look into
It means I bought a Multimeter and aquired a (very) basic understanding what an Ohm is
Hell, I bought every single tool I used this last weeks because I never needed anything more complex than a hammer
It means I spent day after day, fastening screws, unfastening screws, laughing about the embarrassing errors I made while fastening them in the first place...
I guess what I'm trying to say is, I dove into this whole build as an Eloi, unprepared and out of my debth, following directions in a foreign language, and I still got it done!
So now I am an Eloi with two new things, an awesome 3D-Printer, and new confidence in my ability to get shit done.
Thanks to this great community for making this technology available, thanks to Nophead for selling complete kits.
tl;dr And it feels good!
