My Voxelab Aquila came with a standard glass printbed. So far I thought I had no issues. Recently I thought I will printing PETG a try. Result -> no chance to get that print from the bed without damaging one of both (of course I let I cool down first). But even before I had more and more adhesion problems. So after a few friends suggested I gave the magnetic PEI printbed a try and so far I have to say I am pretty happy with it. Prints stick good and come out great. Should have done that already a while ago. Oh and because I was already working on it I changed the bed leveling springs to rubber buffers. Seems a lot more sturdy now.

    The fan shroud is particularly interesting, also, when I tried to set up octoprint to with my Aquila it had issues with producing balls of material all over the print - have you run into this issue at any point?
