How is prusa still in business?

Not really I have a Bambu A1, Kingroon KPL1 and a prusa Mini+ and they are all awesome. The prusa is overpriced as heck but it's a perfect little machine for me to learn, I wouldnt have been able to troubleshoot half the things on my Bambu without starting with that Mini. Although it's the same with

The Prusa Initiation Checklist - as observed in the wild

I print paht-cf, pa cf and gf, pc, pccf and all sort of “engineering filaments” on a prusa mini with the enclosure (not heated, just the official one). This guy nags about the electronics rated max 85C, it’s pure nonsense counting that you can print PEEK with a chamber heated at 80C and you won’t pr

This is my Prusa Mini Exo Frame, helps with stability and does not need any teardown to install.

Im looking for a second smaller printer

I bought a used Prusa Mini+ and rebuilt it to like new. That thing is unbeatable. It prints all normal stuff and I've printed TPU and ABS. I do have a Delack enclosure with lights and filters on it. Total investment around $400. .

Prusa Quality Issues?

Do you want help fixing your printers or do you want to debate about Prusa's quality? Pick. I run a Prusa Mini+, a MK3S, and a MK4S. The 4S is unkillable. The 3S before it mostly as well. The Mini exists to print small jobs and replacement parts for the other two.

Would a Prusa Mini+ be good as a mostly plug-n-play printer?

No, it requires manual Z offset. You want any Prusa with “Nextruder” which is basically every printer but the Mini. It’s also way too high a price for an older printer. That said, it is still a great printer.

There is code for f***ing LASERS in the Prusa Firmware Buddy codebase

but after all - why not? A very small Prusa MINI Desktop-Milling-Machine for small PCBs would be quite nice. Don't tempt me and my Mini lmao You could probably do it, the biggest issues are finding a small enough spindle that fits on the gantry, and powering it. There may be too much flex in the sys

The Prusa Mini+ was my first printer and it has worked reliably for five years now, so much so that I had to get another one. However I've had issues pushing it to speeds of the input slicer presets. In my opinion there's many great things about these printers and it deserves to live on, so I want t

Printer Recommendation Beginner

Prusa Mini+ It's very simple, very easy to repair, and prusa is the apple of 3D printers, except Prusa stayed open source and has a great sense of humor and phenomenal community culture. Bambu is pushed on Reddit a lot. I've worked with 3D printers for almost 20 years now since the first Makerbot ki
