I have sold all my printer, except my 2 x MK3S+. I realize that they were the ones where my tools, not my toys.
So true, the Prusa feels like a tool, that is really a good point
Hi, I hope you continue to enjoy your Prusa. I bought new but it hit the wallet here in Australia. It cost me about AU$1600 as a kit and i thoroughly enjoyed putting it together, which took me 12 hours as I was super careful. I paid out the extra because I did my research. As an example, what printer do you see in many farms? You know it; Prusa printers. I very recently bought a much used one that is in non working condition but as a pickup only it cost me AU$300. I will strip it back and build it up to good workable condition. As you know, waiting for a long print while you are already thinking of the next job can be so frustrating. I enjoyed your video and I believe your prints are coming out better than mine. That horse is magnificent. I'm not made of money but if the latest MMU gets good reviews i will get one closer to Christmas. Using up to six different filaments automatically has to be much better, especially to highlight certain parts of a print. Better than my lousy painting anyway. Good luck. Oh, I just remembered, you can get even glossier prints using ABS apparently but you will need an enclosure.
Thank you for your great comment. I would love to get the MMU and do multi color printing, but as all things Prusa, even though they are exceptional quality, they are not cheap. I would love to use Prusa's XL machine with the multi tool setup, that way there is no purging. I hope you continue to enjoy your Prusa and get your prints perfectly setup. Do a PID calibration on both the head and build plate, does a lot to improve print quality.
If you need an almost new one (I can show you printing stats) I am selling mine. I live in Melbourne. @jed2055
Got my MK3 kit in 2017. I upgraded it to MK3S+ years ago and it is currently printing away in a cabinet in the basement closet. It is run by Octoprint and monitored by Obico. I used FreeCad to design a custom radio bracket for my camper and just threw in some Creality PeTG because Prusament is impossible to get these days. Prusa have done a great job supporting this old printer and each new release of firmware just keeps making it better. It just works and works until it doesn't but then it's easy to troubleshoot and fix if something goes wrong. Nothing else I've got comes close to this printer for reliable, good prints.
Thanks for the message, yes, very reliable machines.
Awesome! I just picked up a second hand machine.
As someone who has just jumped into 3D printing I was really apprehensive about getting one for a long time because I was worried I wouldn't use it. I've done this with drones. I get one, use it a handful times and then I forget about it and it just sits in a closet. Because of this I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a printer and got an Ender 3 V2 on sale for $190 US. It was really simple to setup out of the box and I was printing shortly after. Now I find myself using my printer to tackle annoyances all over the house. I have a few dark closets that have lights with pull-chains on them to turn them on and off. You always have to swipe around in the air to find the chain. I have now printed pull handles for the chains in bright orange filament and you can spot them in the dark. No more fumbling around trying to grab the chain. I find this to be an invaluable tool and hope to move to a Prusa someday when I want those great print anesthetics.
Fantastic, yeah, 3D printers come in so useful at the most unexpected times. The Ender is awesome, just the prusa is on a whole new level, was so impressed with it. Thanks for you comment, appreciate it.
Prusa slicer is even better, compared to cura
Try printing ABS, PC
Thank you for the comment, will try that.
I know that Prusa only sell spare parts to puchasers of Prusa printers, how are people like yourself who buy a used machine catered for? By the way I love coffee also and especially Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee, its expensive but worth the cost in my opinion, I buy the pre-roasted beans and grind it myself. it is one of my few luxuries in life.
Howsit, thanks for the comment, I must really try Jamaican Blue Mountain, sounds awesome. You can download all the printable parts for a Prusa on printables.com, here is an example, www.printables.com/model/451501-mk4-printable-parts
@@FusionSource I was thinking more about things like motors and boards and electronic things, would you have to get the original purchaser to order them or can the ownership be transfered on Prusa's records? it might be worth investigating as further down the line if a part failed you would probably want to replace it with a genuine Prusa part.
I don’t know who told you this but it is patently untrue.
The prusa has a serial number on the printer, that's all you need.... I just wish we can get a local company to be able to bring in these parts , as the import of parts are crazy expensive on shipping then the SA tx ontop of that, the parts aren't expensive but importing becomes a pain ... So I usually wait for black Friday and then buy spares as they always do free shipping then
@@TheZeroimpact Yeah, shipping really kills the price.
