Colour selection is a bit basic, their red leans more towards orange. The silver can be a bit fickle and does absorb moisture, the others can be left open for years and still print fine. It's a classical ABS: it's shiny, smells when printed and it loves a warm chamber, the hotter the better...

Das Filament unfortunately doesn't produce any ABS. Their PLA is good tho.

Total of 2 on the top extrusions, bright enough for my usecase.

If you haven't already done so try cleaning your build plate with some dish soap and running water. How warm is your print chamber? If the printer is in a cold and drafty room it might not get warm enough inside the printer and parts will start to peel off the buildplate on their own. This often...

Thank you for reporting, you're the first one that noticed and spoke up :). The supports were a late addition to the design and were not included in the CAD model when the manual was created. I'll put it on the list.

The bed is not rigidly mounted in the stock configuration for a V2 either. Only one of the bolts is tightened to secure the bed, the others are intended to be loose. The assembly manual calls this out on page 59.

Acrylic can get soft-ish but is usually fine. Having the panel slightly undersized with some room around it is the critical part. Compared to aluminum frame the deck panel will expand quite a bit more (~3x) with the temperature change during heat-up and printing. The drawings call for 1mm...

Small QOL change I do on most of my printers: additional temperature sensors. Chamber temperature sensor to know when the printer is up to temp Second temperature sensor attached to the corner of the build plate (either using a M3 screw in thermistor in a tapped hole or a embedded in a blind...

a lot of people struggled with the callouts for hex nut insertions. some form of graphical indicator might help
