Photon P1

I was a bit annoyed when I heard that this was happening after backing the P1 on Kickstarter. I managed to get that for about £350, with the refund and the voucher factored in. Seeing it now I doubt I would have gone for the Max if that had come first. I was willing to risk the £350 but not double t

I was totally confused with the marketing so I asked Anycubic. The reply I received today was that the P1 by default comes with the single large vat and build plate. If you want to use the dual vat/build plate for some weird reason (I say weird as I can't think of a personal need for that), then you

Heygears Reflex RS is less than the P1 on sale right now. That’s a far better printer than any Anycubic. If the Saturn 3 (non-Ultra) is available in your market, that’s the best bang for your buck available, and it has a higher Z height than any newer printer. The Anycubic Wash & Cure 3.0 Plus is go

They're all pretty much the same user-friendly printer now, the P1 is a copycat of the Saturn 4 Ultra and so on. You also don't need to buy anycubic resin, they're not manufacturers.

What resin???? I never met anyone that didn't say it works fine with anycubic resin, it's other brands that don't stick very well on the M7 Max. Also most people leave smart release on and if like me they use high quality ACF that doesn't stretch the machine detect the release at 0.3mm and then retu

It isn't that customer service is overwhelmed, it's where they have been bombarded with cancelations to the point if they respond and honored the requests they would likely face bankruptcy. This year has been a very bad year for Anycubic with every single launch (Kx, P1, Ace 2, and s1 max) and it's

Multicolor FDM printing is on the horizon, but still not quite there yet.The only solution for miniatures is still resin.Mainly because you do not print individual models, but batches of them, while the fdm printer has to do each one individually.Resin is more precise and still gives you the option

Honestly, the Photon P1 presale price is kind of nuts for what it appears to offer and the OPTIONAL dual vat setup might be interesting for him. Presale ends soon. Other than that, most brands have good units. Saturn 3 series offers amazing value at the current price. Photon M7, Mars Ultra, Reflex..
