like alot of noobs i thought i got the best 3dp i could get. had i known bambu would brick my machine i wouldnt have spent 2k on it. but i did. so time to sell the x1c with ams and get something that will just print. american made? i got a tip on anet . whats the point? this time il ask what the seasoned simians are using. these are what im considering. K1 Max 3D Printer Prusa MK4S MMU3 Enclosure Bundle the anet site is down so couldnt compare that. basicaly a enclosed high quality printer that has 300 degree hot end ect.max budget 2k. a better option then these? no more bambu. leaning toward prussa because of the slicer. what say you?
Depends on what type of printing your doing, or future needs! I have had great luck with the Creality Ender III Pro with all the upgrades including the ender extender which doubles all the print dimensions, along with the direct hot head extruder and X/Y/Z stepper motor silencers! Not an easy printer to set up, especially with all the upgrades,, but DAMN, once modded, the print quality and print strength is amazing! The Bambu does larger prints Faster, but the quality is questionable, especially when printing hybrid filament such as Carbon Fiber! For the money, I would stick with the Creality Ender III Pro with all the upgrades, especially the hot head extruder with Diamond nozzles, THAT is a serious rig that will serve you well with out breaking the bank! I use stand alone Slicer software from Cura or Onshape as well as the Standby Solidworks, but Prusa or Ender is my usual go to for basics, depending on print specs and filament type, I find these two work seamlessly with AutoCad II as well as most other print specific engines, but find the stand alone software superior for detail specific's as well as print type! Of the bunch, Cura is by far the slickest once you get used to it, while Solidworks is simply amazing for hyper detailed scale work, which is super important for Resin printing if you ever go down that road, we won't talk about the costs of the large print bed resin printers, but lets just say, when you get to THAT level, it's worth the cost!
thanks for that. ender 3 comes up alot! il look at them. mostly guns and car parts is what im intrested in. saw one printer today with 32"x32"x32" build. anazing times.
