no idea tbh but there are anons that 3d print
@Spethanie for first ever machine.. Anet A8
Community upgrade parts for it are quite good
Its one of those models what you upgrade continously and tweak to suit your needs
hi
@Spethanie how much work and learning are you willing to put in
if you have the time and motivation for it the best printer for your money is the tronxy x5s, hands down, nothing even comes close, but it will be a _lot_ of work and digging through forums and documentation of other projects and possibly hunting for parts if you've never built any sort of robot before
if you don't wanna build something from a box of bare parts, i'd say the cr-10
it's BIG, it's cheap, it's almost entirely ready to go out of the box, and has awesome community and manufacturer support
the x5s is even bigger, while having a smaller footprint on your desk, WAY faster, more precise, more easily customized
that said, it's tronxy, so you might have some missing parts qc issues, any given part is cheap but you have to know what to look for if something is missing
if you want something _super_ beginner friendly, the maylan m100 is your best bet, but it is tiny. You will want something bigger way sooner than you might expect
and you can get several times bigger for like a hundred bucks more, so...
Neat, the X5 is on sale for 200 at walmart.
walmart here doesnt even sell filament let alone printers :<
but hey, why frown, local scarcity = local business
Its fulfilled by some other company, weirdly enoigh. Its online only
Whats the historical price on them?
So I got the board bit thing for the pro 3 but it looks a bit different from the original
Original on left replacement on right
Would it be safe to use?
its the same really
just less fancier
I can see the corners cut from here
Looks chinky
Micro USB is lopsided
Does anyone here have a Xiaomi MI6 phone ?
I'm a brainlet and need tech support 😣
I just don't want anything to blow up tbh
@johnfrum that's the x5, so i am unsure, the x5s is like $350 but an awful lot bigger
330x330x400 vs 210x210x180
er
280
regardless, the x5s is the better value imo
I'll put it in tomorrow and see if it blows the phone up
