This is more than enough for a good printer. If money is really an issue (like you are looking for recommendations closer to the $400 end), I would get him either of the following along with some cash to buy filament: Anycubic Kobra X, if printing in multiple colors is the most important Elegoo Cent

I own both. Facts: Print quality is similar, Kobra X multicolor is a little faster and a little more efficient. Opinions: Bambu Studio is better; Anycubic Slicer Next is what you get if you shoot Bambu Studio with a Bizarro Ray. Makerworld is much better in that it's more mature, but it's free regar

Ich kann dir den Anycubic Kobra X empfehlen, ist zwar offen, bringt aber ein Colorsystem für 4 Farben direkt mit. Habe den im Presale für 260 bekommen und bin echt zufrieden mit dem was er leistet. Gerade für Anfänger (bin ich selber) sehr intuitiv zu bedienen. Modelle von Makerworld, etc. ohne Prob

If you want to start with this hobby, the mini is probably the best option. You just have to copy and paste profiles since most people here are using this or the bigger A1. You don't need the multi-material unit really and even if the print stops midway it doesn't matter that you can see the layer l

Consider the a1 and not the mini. Also u can get corexy Bambu but that’s also expensive. And if u think about it the cc also has corexy AND also supports carbon composite filaments. And the cc is enclosed so a health improvement? I prefer open bedslingers but that’s ur preference If ur okay with a b

I’d say right now the best bang for your buck hobby printer with colour swapping is the Anycubic Kobra X. Nothing on the market can compare when it comes to the feature set and pricing. It is very “plasticy” as it’s a value marketed printer but gives you the speed and multicolour options. Stepping u

Der U1 ist für den Preis ein Nobrainer, sprich du bekommst wirkich viel für das Geld, Natürlich sind 1000€ kein Pappenstiel, aber wir reden hier von einem Mehrkopfwechselsystem, das hat nun mal seinen Preis, ich bin begeistert von dem Drucker. Wenn du eine günstige Multicolor Variante suchst, schau

Awesome! But I've downloaded the file and tried to colour in all of the sections, but I ran into an issue that I can best describe as z-fighting you sometimes see in games. When I set a filament for the yellow part of the outer ring, it somehow appears under the black part. Is this a slicer problem?

Würde sonst auch den Anycubic Kobra S1 empfehlen. Ist halt ne Alternative zum Zentauri Carbon und im Vergleich zum Kobra X geschlossen. Den S1 benutze ich selbst und der druckt halt einfach oftmals besser als die zwei Prusa Core One auf der Arbeit. Und er kann halt mit der Düse laut Hersteller Bus z

If you aren’t at all interested in multi color then you absolutely should buy a CC1, but if you might want to do multicolor in the future the Kobra x is a better version of the A1. Disclaimer I only say this about the Kobra X, every other Bambu model is far superior to its comparable anycubic printe
