Ok, so I know nothing about 3d printing, but since we became empty nester, am looking for a new hobby. My wife us taking up pottery, but thats not for me, and 3d printing seems like a good bit of fun.
Started looking at videos and comparisons and all that, and the Ender 3 came up, but it seems smaller, so looked at the 5 plus. Then I started to wonder if there might be better options, while staying under $1000. Bambu, Prusa, Anycubic…what should I look at if I want larger prints but am a beginner.
What’s wrong with Anycubic these days? An i3 Mega S was my first 3D printer and I have complaints, but it’s not garbage.
I have a mega x and 2 kobra go’s. I don’t think there has been a single infant in time where they all worked together. Constant breakdowns!
You make a fair point, I feel like ive been working on this thing for the last 2 months straight to finally get some real high quality prints out of it. I think I’ve only had one real breakdown though, and it’s totally my fault for not making sure the first layer stuck to the bed before walking away.
The self bed levelling has pretty much never worked. We’ve had to install manual adjusters to get prints to adhere.
