One more thing, looks like they also have a Centauri Carbon 2 Combo (which includes the Canvas) that can be ordered on their website. It has a funny hat to cover the long tubes!

Yeah I'm not gonna lie the way they designed this cooled me off the Elegoo a bit, if just because it looks a bit silly haha. But it's still great, my step dad has the CC1 and all his prints are great. I'm more interested in making practical parts (for filmmaking) so really I don't care that much about multi colour but I'm more interested in multi-material (for example so supports can be a different, cheaper filament) and QoL like auto-spool change, and I would still want a multi-colour here and there to make stuff for my kid.

It's time I look at the whole current landscape again and see if it's time to plunge ;p

The hat is very funny. I wonder if there will be 3D printable mods that use all that empty space for something (that said, in the 3D printing world, mods for the printers are ubiquitous and I wouldn't be surprised if that is already in the works somewhere)
