@Kaytee again sorry for the 3d printing annoyance but have you seen this ? https://www.3dprintersonlinestore.com/diy-kit/creality-ender3-3d-printer
is that too much of a bad thing lol
creality is one of the best chinese companies i have done business with
the cr10 stuff is above my budget so i cant really look to that
and their product, that i've seen so far, is pretty solid
yeah i see people praising creality a ton so far
_that said_, go for a more mature model
since they usually end up releasing upgraded versions with improvements from community feedback
i was looking at this thing https://www.3dprintersonlinestore.com/diy-kit/flsun-3d/flsun-3d-metal-frame-prusa-i3-diy-kit
don't buy flsun
o
y not
every flsun kit i've seen or heard someone talk about came with every single plastic part misshapen and unusable
wow
thats fucked
they're pretty good volume as a box-o-spare-parts buy don't buy em as a printer
value*
what else under 200usd should i be looking at?
200x200 volume is pretty important too
the cr-10 mini is a bit more mature but it costs more
and has a bigger footprint
yeah ive heard a ton about the cr10 but it really is out of my budget
even the mini
in the price range you're looking for, definitely consider kits, not many options preassembled
these all are kits arent they
creality's idea of a kit so far as been preassembled but the bottom and top of the frame have to be attached with four screws
i might just take the gamble on the ender 3
let me know how it is!
creality does good work, i can't imagine it's _bad)_
yeah
and i imagine a lot of other people will be buying it too so community support should hopefully end up pretty good
suggestion for this one
get a set of stepper vibration dampers
creality printers are pretty loud out of the box but go dead silent with a set of dampers on the steppers
yeah
aight cool
is there anything else i should get for my first 3d printer other than filament obviously?
get two, one for x one for y
