This is a pretty neat tour of Prusa's printer factory on the Strange Parts channel

They have an absolutely massive 600 printer farm, with the same mk3 and mk4 machines that they sell to customers, which is really impressive.

They do almost everything in-house, including manufacturing the printer mainboards, for faster project planning and turnaround times.

Note - the video is pretty long at about 40 mins!

After watching I'm a little tempted to pick up some prusament filament to support the company, really like how they are supporting local talent.

Crazy how they can 3d print screens, heating elements, and circuit boards these days!

I've always wanted to make another 3d printer with a 3d printer just to say I've done it.

Also, that text body feels like a paid advertisement for a mobile game on youtube. Summary of the thing, a couple talking points, a "what I like most" section as well as "I'm definitely/considering spending money on this thing" wrapped into one...
