Each point is a seven-day rolling window of complete UTC days; a point is comparable only when at least 100 analyzed posts or comments fall inside it. A day with no analyzed records counts as zero; missing coverage is marked and never shown as zero. The series ends at the latest complete analyzed day — it never extends into the current incomplete day. How attention is measured.

As some have said, heating it up will help soften it but not to the point of melting it. If it is PETG, spraying it with alcohol will often get under the edges and help with removal. (Don’t heat and use alcohol at the same time) Careful use of a plastic scraper will help.

I will sometimes use a plastic scraper (not a metal one) to help remove stubborn bits, but if you printed something like PETG too close to that specific print surface, it might be permanently bonded, and it might take part of the print surface away with it when removed.

Good. Dont use any metal scrapers on the new one. Wait for the part and plate to completely cool and then remove it by bending. Use a plastic scraper if you have to.
- Comment
others already said plastic scraper and deburing tool. outside of that nothing. well ok maybe a couple nozzles as they do need to be replaced every so often. a couple spring plates. learn to model and the world is your oyster

Plastic scraper to remove prints from the bed so you don't end up posting on here about getting a plastic sliver shoved under your fingernail.
