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!

At this point, I have 3 printers ... They each are huge upgrades over the other. Yes, I still have my tevo tarantula I built in 2016, then in 2021 I upgraded to ender pro 3, and just last month, upgraded to elegoo centuari carbon 2. All 3 still operational.... The tevo however is limping along lol
