>set print temperature for new filament>wonder why it sucks ass>accidentally set temperature to 25 instead of 225that may explain the problem. Turns out the plastic has to actually be hot enough to extrude through the nozzle. You learn something new every day...

What do people recommend for a 3D printer?

@EscapeVelo @matty I bought a SOVOL SV06 last Friday so I could 3d print some car parts; it's supposed to show up tomorrow, can't wait

@EscapeVelo @matty the market has improved a dozen times over and the best pick is still not getting one at all unless you're ready to do the work of a cnc technician for the benefit of farting out plastic doohickeys once a month or two

It depends on what you care most about and what your budget is. Do you want quality, plug and play, open source, or something you can tinker with?

I dont know exactly what I would use one for. So my budget wouldnt be much for one. I have purchased 3D printed parts, and I could see myself doing so again.

If you don't know what you'd use it for, or have no real application for it and don't feel like learning how to use CAD software to design your own stuff, I'd just steer clear. That is, unless you really want something new and enjoy being able to print trinkets and want an affordable entry level device. I started with an Ender 3 v2 which was hammered dogshit. After I got tired of that, I upgraded to a Bambu Labs X1C. This product has been discontinued in favor of their H2 series which I'd love to get my hands on, but I need to get my worth out of this thing for now.The Bambu P1S is a good mid-range printer with a great deal of bells and whistles. However, their A1 or A1 Mini are excellent, high quality entry level printers for a very reasonable price (linked below).https://us.store.bambulab.com/products/a1?from=navigation

My only experiences thus far have been with Ender and Bambu, opposite sides of the spectrum in terms of quality and reliability. Again I absolutely love this printer and will continue to use Bambu for all of my projects in the future, barring any extenuating circumstances. It just works ™️

If you let your older brother touch the thing and he doesn't know what he's doing this shit happens.

Thanks for your considered post and sharing your experience. I heard you can send plans to a printer, who will print something for you for a fee, if need be. I think Ill continue to stay on the sidelines for now. I bought a 3D printed grip for a retro handheld recently.

@matty @EscapeVelo easy to maintain too... get some of this to clean the screws dives. https://bikesultan.com/products/finish-line-gear-floss-microfiber-cleaning-rope there is printable applicator for the grease which makes it clean and simple.if you are using an AMS there is code added to end of the print g code to force unloading. doing this has helped reduce some trouble.
