Bambu Studio does appear to be open source and available on Linux, though, which were my first concerns. I'm not sure I would need to switch to Klipper or something similar in that case even if I could.

The results from resin printers look fantastic. My only work area is inside with cats, so I'm concerned about ventilation and contamination (especially since shutting them out of the room will reduce ventilation further). Also, miniatures are just one of the things I wanted to make. Planters, cross stitch hoops and tools, and those neat sectional fidget toys are all things I plan to make, and it seems resin isn't ideal for those. I don't mind sanding the result to make it smoother, and I understand the results won't be as high detail as a purchased miniature when I do make them.

I have not yet learned much about stepper motors vs other options, but otherwise it sounds like the main thing that has changed in this price range is an increased number of valid options in it.

Yep, right there. Missed it entirely. Haha.

That model appears to be the most frequently recommended one for beginners, from my couple hours of research. Is it just the ease of use, or is the quality there, too?

I looked into resin briefly, but I don't think my work area would be able to be ventilated enough for it to be safe from what I have seen.

I don't mind tinkering, as long as I can find the info to help do so somewhere.

That does appear to exceed my budget by $100 even on sale, though. Unless I'm missing something.

I am seeing that suggestion a lot elsewhere, too.

Yeah, it didn't seem like it could handle detail at a very small scale. However, making something in the 5-6 cm range would still be wonderful for painting. How do you have to keep it happy?

Either a fantastic source of experience, a harrowing chase, or an instant end to the run.

That'd be me. Nobody else I know does it, either. I try to explain it and they're like "yeah, I try to look up at a light to help sneeze" and that's just not it.

I did that too, and mage ended up being the last one I won with. Ironically, I think I ended up leaving his staff with magic missile that run because I ended up with a ton of wands, so I could buff all of them at once at will by using my staff.

"Into Darkness" was the first one I won with. If you conserve your torches the first several levels, it isn't much different than a run with no challenges.

Six? I haven't managed to get one with 3 yet.
