but at 99p, it wouldn't hurt too much to try

O rings aren't that expensive.

What were they for?

mech keyboard

Figured lol

Man

they genuinely make gat reds feel like rubber domes

Makes me fucking laugh when I see Mechanical Keyboard o-rings on Ebay and shit

They sell for like 20 dollars

lmao

When they're just bought in quantitiy and put in a bag.

@fbn Wish fbn would answer me

<@135743726789197824> if you scroll up, i asked first, and fbn already answered "yes", it's an anet a8

serves him right for posting a 3d printer. it's just going to invite a lot of curious questions

:3

Oh my bad

I did a quick skim

Fuark

I was so close yesterday to pulling the trigger on one

are you looking to get into the hobby for fun and profit too

it's a nice cheap beginner's kit

Yeah

my next is gonna be a corexy thing though

I've already picked out all the upgrades

Oh

a lot of the upgrades are sorta big

A reprap?

how big is the build volume on that?

the anet is a prusa-style printer, the biggest difference between the prusa and the corexy is the fact that the bed is stationary on the corexy

Yeah

Well the anet is just a carbon copy of the Prusa i3, but the frame is acrylic

I'm attracted to the Anet for a while because of how large the community is for it

yup and it may be tempting to get an aluminium frame

but i think it's better to just either leapfrog the whole community for corexy (which is growing in popularity) or learn everything you want on the anet and eventually upgrade to an original prusa i3

Yeah

Or the mk2

or mk3 or mk4 or whatever it is by then

the multi-stepper extruder head thing for quad filament is a big motivator but it does seem like an incremental step

anyway yeah anet a8 is great

you should just go for it. worth the price.

don't print ABS and you won't worry about heatbed issues
