printer's having some thermal runaway issues in its new spot, it looks like it's better ventilated and the nozzle can drop by 10C and the runaway timer is shorter than it needs to beat the ventilation and bring it back up to 200

thinking maybe before i do any serious printing on this, i might have to go ahead with my enclosure project i've been planning

planning on CAD modelling some frame pieces around a component model i've built of the printer's frame, so i can 3D print those and then attach them to the printer for some corner protection, color accents, and attachment points

then i'm gonna try and find some 30x60cm one-way mirror acrylic sheets and face the mirror side inward so while the front door is closed, it's an infinity mirror setup

also got it communicating over the COM port so i can manage this from my PC and hopefully later a phone app and keep an eye on the progress and heat levels, instead of using an SD card and hoping for the best
