Hey all, I have the X2D with a gold Textured PEI and I want to look into going with an alternative backup. Bambu Lab plates are very expensive, so I'm wondering if you've had any luck with other brand plates of better value?
I tried a UniTak3D Textured which ripped off the plate about 10 layers in mid print. That's about it.
Thank you for your help!
So last year I made my decision. I was feeling like shit, heavily reliant on something that was costing me money, patience, and probably my health. I started feeling a scary pain in my chest that I thought could be coming from vaping. I was constantly irritated and losing patience with everyone around me over something so stupid.
For 13 years, it ruled over me.
Then one day, in the middle of a workday, after reading into what that pleurisitic pain in my chest could be, I decided not to touch it again.
If you're here, you're trying, you're doing great, and you can do it. It WILL make your physical health and possibly your life better to be rid of it. You can absolutely break the chains no matter what your situation, it holds no power over you, it's all in your mind. I quit cold turkey, but that doesn't mean I just sat there mindlessly. I cultivated my fear and anger against what was ruling my life and I chowed down a bag of saltless sunflower seeds or gum throughout the day until the waves died down.
Oh and I still get miniscule urges every once in a while, but this isn't my first rodeo. When you make it this far, don't go back. Its a weakened demon, not a dead one, but it only gets stronger when you decide to give it what it wants. Don't ever forget the suffering it caused you.
If you need something, it isn't nicotine, replace it and remove it from your life. Don't ever stop. Keep going.
Good luck 👍
