  • Great tips just want to add a few. Yes use drywall mud, slop it on, not too thick. It will contract. Didn’t try to get it perfect with the spackle knife. Use coarse and fine drywall sandpaper or a sponge. The sponge will help get the corner crisp, if you use paper, wrap it around a square block. Use very light pressure. Give it a day or 2 to dry before sanding. Use a quality printer before painting.

    Some people will say you should make sure all the loose bits are chipped away, in my experience you may end up taking much more down than you want. Try and get anything raised chipped away and some peel stop primer will help to hold it down and prevent future chipping.












  • As someone who does own an X1. I haven’t yet tried the other options of slicer or gone deeper down the g-code rabbit hole. I’ve only had it a few months. I bought knowing that this was a possibility but did so because of the simplicity, quality, and not wanting to spend endless hours tweaking.

    One oversight I did have was the possibility that this could eventually lead to a cricut type situation of having a subscription model to even use the hardware. This means I will not be upgrading and will be keeping a closer eye on the changes that are made.
