Creator 5 Pro

Worth noting that for basically the price of an X2D combo you could get the flashforge creator 5 pro, which is an enclosed four-head toolchanger with the same build volume, 320C nozzle and a heated chamber. If you think there's a chance that you want to do multicolour in any serious way in the futur

In the below 1500 range, I would suggest the Snapmaker u1.Base printer is 900.The top is 150, and won't ship for 4-5 months. He can use a plastic tote in the meantime (we're all doing that).Hardened nozzles are super helpful. The base nozzles can't handle glow in the dark, wood infused, and so on as

You can add 3mf files as objects into an existing project and it carries over painting, volume modifiers, fuzzy skin etc. Roughly 99% of the print profiles on makerworld are utter inexcusable trash anyway so when I'm printing other people's models I almost never end up printing them with the author'

Yep, and the P1S is still excellent and can be easily upgraded with a chamber heater (plus aftermarket hotends to add quick-swap nozzles etc) for a not hugely significant amount of money. They're still selling the P1S on the UK store and it's just slightly more expensive than the A1. Excellent machi

I'm looking at them but when I ordered the X2D it was still cheaper in a combo than the U1 by 30% or so and is fully enclosed at that price. I was able to add an AMS-HT and filament track switch and still be lower on price. I'd probably trust snapmaker more than flashforge but the AD5M Pros are doin

No problem. The only way to do proper multi-material is with a toolchanger (it uses multiple nozzles vs a single nozzle with the old filament getting pulled back and a new one being introduced during a swap), which means your selection is fairly limited at the moment. There is the Flashforge Creator

Flashforge creator 5 pro is much better than the u1. Enclosed. Heated chamber and still 4 toolheads. Same price

Nothing shady going on with the software from Flashforge, at least not more shady than other companies. The stuff online about "closing down" the software is mostly clickbait and has been exaggerated. Otherwise, agree with the other comments. I'm waiting for my creator 5 pro pre-order, I want a heat

Não tenho nenhuma das duas, mas, to de olho em mudar meu modelo de impressora fechada das minhas k1cs atuais. A S1 me interessou, mas, tem um problema crônico na build plate, dela vir empenada pq é mto fina. Parece que estão enviando para reposição uma mesa nova mais grossa e imagino que os lotes no

I spent a lot of time (probably too much) debating which to get and I finally went with the Creator 5 Pro... the included enclosure with a heated chamber for much less money made my decision. My first printer was a Voxelab Aquila, made by Flashforge, and was a workhorse while one of my most recent p
