Dumb mistakes

[Mtomalty]

Hey does anyone have any idiot mistakes they have done with 3d printing?

I just rebuilt my QU-BD One Up extruder with a new frame and I put the frame on backwards so when it went to extrude it would pull the filament out instead of pushing it through

One of my printers has the unfortunate tendency to snag on part of the frame when homed after a really tall print job. When it happens it pulls the X belt loose and requires some disassembly to fix it (due to an unfortunate fan placement). It's easy to avoid if I lower or home Z before homing the other axes. Do I remember to do this? No. 7 times and counting.

Numerous times starting a print without filament in the machine.

That's all I'll admit to.
