    Nonzero, but realistically, what chain of fuckups would have to happen to actually cause a fire here? Maybe if you left a tin of hairspray inside the chamber along with some paper or rags or something, even then, you’d be insanely unlucky.

    The ‘tearing itself apart’ seems to refer to s simple collision, printing when there’s an object on the bed. Obviously not good, but it was just a normal print otherwise.

    Yeah it could be printing something private, but if you’re using a liklihood * severity assessment, it’s hardly worth mentioning.

    Obviously not arguing that this is a good thing, but I think people are being a bit hyperbolic. Fire risk should be no greater than during any other print. Damage to the printer would be a concern, but usually the printed part will simply dislodge. I don’t know if it has any kind of crash protection?

    So yeah its bad, and they need to do more to prevent this. Equally, it’s a rare issue with a pretty low risk profile, that should be easy for consumers to mitigate against by simply switching it off
