As a fellow Aussie, I wanted to say a huge thank you. I was blown away when unboxing my mixer and impressed about the attention to detail in the packing of what seems like such a simple item. Mate - you've surpassed what I expected as my previous 3D printer was unable to print your files. I have had much better results from the Ultimaker S7 that we got for our work project. I was curious as to what printer you are using to get the results that you are getting. Thank you again - Verena
