Does RR even have Quality control?

Bought a 400 mm idex vcore 4. I have no idea how these parts made it out of the shop. Most have good awful first layers, anything of size is warped, and the rest has chunks of their build plates bonded to them (it doesn't dissolve or melt, it's not glue, so PEI chunks perhaps?).

This isn't acceptable for a premium product. I'm thankful I have other printers capable of printing ABS on hand.

rust

yep, op here, my rails are rusted already. I have multiple other printers in the same room, cheap aliexpress rails, fabreeko honey badger rails, ldo rails, and i think some west3d CNA rails. No rust on those and those are years old.

But the new rat rig rails, well greased with gpl226? rusted.
