Wifi?
To be honest, I don't see how wifi can be advantageous in terms of space.
My 3D printer is not connected to my PC. As you can see, it is in the far corner. All sliced files and Gcodes are saved in an SD card. I just insert the SD card into the printer for printing. I never had my 3D printer connected to my PC. I can put it anywhere.
The gcodes are very small files. I only use 2GB sd cards.

Your solution is the one I would go with if it were me. I just ran your option by her. She wants to be able to hit "print" and have it print. She can be fussy. When we get it, if she thinks it's too small, I'll simply send it back and go with something like you have despite her not being too keen on it.

Well, she agreed to get this one. Now, though, Amazon isn't letting me cancel the original order. They are having issues. *sigh*

Not sure if it is really that simple for that printer. She would probably still need to come to the printer to pre-heat and set the temps. Inserting and SD card is not a difficult task. But I am only speaking based on what I have and experience with it. You always need to be beside the printer after hitting print command to make sure everything is in order before it starts printing. It is not a typical printer.

I called Amazon and they cancelled my original order. The printer you showed was 20% off, so with that, the PLA filament, and an SD card, it was around the same price. I'm sure she's going to love it.

As always, thanks for your assistance!

Normally, they come with SD card which contains sample gcodes for test printing.

This one didn't mention coming with an SD card in the box. If it does, she'll have a spare SD card.

By the way, I didn't ask you to get exactly the same brand that I have. I was just saying that the first one you ordered is really too small.
There are a lot of other options out there that works exactly the same.
But I hope you will enjoy what you ordered.

No, I realize you didn't ask me to get the same brand. I went on a couple of factors - one being assembly. I imagine you'd have not shown yours if you were unhappy with it as well. There's just going to be a slight learning curve for my wife mostly.

Wednesday I bought this cell phone, same as the last one that lasted 7.5 years in the hot car.
Very basic phone I have for emergencies + $100.00 per year prepaid card & 400 minutes in price.

Now you will not notice if earthquake happens. :boom:

New set of batteries for my CyberPower 1500VA UPS.
One battery was only reading 9 volts and the other was reading 13.1 volts after removing from the UPS. Both batteries were quite warm.
The UPS was still trying to charge them even while turned off.
It would shut down when the plug was pulled from the wall. New UPS is $190.00
Batteries are so much cheaper.

Now I need to check and replace the batteries in my APC UPS.
Both are around five or six years old.

Oh my gawd... it is so addictive. I've never enjoyed playing Call Of Duty like this before...

How does it feel when a grenade goes off under you ?

The vibration is wider and stronger and travels through the backrest with grenade blasts. The gunshots are smaller and vibration feels "pointed" like a you are being poked with something.
Thr SecretLab chair is perfect for this project because the bottom of the chair has elastic bands where I tucked in the bass shakers and held them in place with foam sheets. When you sit on it, it presses a bit harder against your bum.
