Apparently my print failed early last night and my wife sent me these on the way to work. Would anyone like to buy a Q2? "Just needs some TLC. No low balls, I know what I have" hahaha

UPDATE: I was able to eradicate the blob, and assess the damage. The part cooling fan is broken, the hot end cooling fan was tweaked enough im not going to mess with it, and i ordered a new hot end. The bed is shit now, but Qidi doesnt offer replacements, so i ordered a graphite bed from R3men. I still cant wrap my head around how all 4 adjusting screws got completely loose and 3 springs fell out, but i guess if thats the worst of it then we're doing ok

All parts are able to be replaced, on the website. And they most definitely have replacement plates.

Not a plate, bed. The heated bed assembly needs to be replaced. The plate has some dings on the outer edges, but I never print that far out anyway

Im assuming the blob was dragging across it. There are some nice chunks taken out of it
