Assuming you could get one nowadays, it looks to be a sweet piece of kit.

You shouldn't have told me about this. Now I want one.

If you want to do some big prints, it looks sweet. Michael from the Teaching Tech YT channel just did a video on it. He said good things about it, and that man is very thorough.

It messes up my dual-z axis mod, so that will keep me from buying this right now. I also can't justify the expense ATM.

You did a dual z-axis mod? Damn man, we DO need a 3d printing thread!

I'm pretty sure that I detailed this in my Ender 3 Thread.

Yeah, it's there. Here's the link.

Yeah, I read it and must have completely forgotten, because old, LOL! Did the dual Z make a big difference for you? That's not a common mod it seems.

Don't need to level the bed as much. It stabilises the gantry. and keeps things level.

i have three 3d printers and i print mostly PLA, PETG and ABS.

i print my own 3D models and i model and print architectural models as a freelancer for two architects.

thought i must say i have no great luck with printing stuff that is "in use".
3D printed stuff breaks/deforms pretty fast.

when i see the HDD cages and holders i doubt they would last long here.
i am also not sure how well the case would withstand the temps.


i have printed stuff, a weather station with wifi camera, that deformed last summer when temps reached 42 degree celsius here. outdoors but not in direct sunlight, in the shade.
