I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

I feel like if the text was even with the outer rim, you could probably print it flat and not have supports at all.

Quick tip 2: if you donβt remember the last time you emptied it, itβs too late.
Quick tip 3: tell a friend what youβre doing before you open the filter bucketβ¦ just in case.
Quick tip 4: AHHHHHHGH..*
