    Yep! I have a pi from an old project, a web cam that is compatible, and the wifi dongle and just downloaded the distro for for octoprint. Just need a powered hub and I will have octoprint before I have a printer, lol.

    Ha! Yeah maybe 2 octopi setups!

    I'm going to be using 8mm thick glass I'm re-purposing from a broken digital bathroom scale as my "view port". I'm going to frame it with wood and use that as the door. I was going to use plexi but to me it just doesn't make sense to spend that much on a door.
