I was thinking of the Aarke Carbonator 3 as I really want that pull handle and the solid build, which did you go with? I also got a 5lb but ran into issues with using it with my Sodastream (probably the cheap adapter) it sounds like you actually refill the Sodastream canisters from the big one, how is that process for you?

I'm sure one could argue the pros/cons of drinking soda (or in my case, diet soda) all day, but it is what it is, and I drink a lot of carbonated beverages. It is so nice to be able to stock up on the syrups instead of lugging another 12pk or a couple 2-liters from the store every week.
I did set up a 5lb co2 container with an adapter, but found it tended to freeze up/leak causing more headache than it was worth. I will definitely be getting a new adapter in the future and try my luck again, but for now I went back to the canister exchange program which just works.
It also adds a bit of fun to the process! You get to be a soda jerk. You can make it with more/less syrup, try out flavor combinations, etc. The little "drops" bottles to flavor sparkling water are potent so start small if you end up going this route, otherwise the regular flavorings are pretty forgiving.
I'm curious what kind of 3d printed terrarium ideas you have floating around? I have a few terrarium/vivarium setups, though they're all bioactive and mostly incorporate natural items. Unique water bowls or rock-formations seem like a great use for 3d printing! I know nothing about the various plastics used or if there are any concerns for the health of the critters though.
I hope you can gather a bit of motivation here and there, I've definitely felt that before. I can't be bothered to play video games anymore and I don't know what the catalyst for that was. I've found I get most of my video game enjoyment watching streamers or breakdowns/lore videos now. Anyway, I just felt like hoppin' in on your comment because you mentioned terrariums.
