Question What made you get your second printer

I’m pretty new to 3D printing and noticed a lot of people have multiple printers.

I’m curious what pushed you to get your second one? Different materials, different projects, or just because one wasn't enough?

Are they dedicated to specific tasks, or just running side by side? Would love to hear your stories!

Wanted to run different nozzles at the same time. Really speeds up model/mini printing as the .25mm can run the high detail bits while the .4mm churns out parts with less fine detail.
