PSA Warning if you are thinking of wrapping your printer -

It is a hard habit to break for people who have been 3d printing at home since the MakerBot CNC. All of a sudden I have a printer with all the features I need in an X1C. Sure, I printed a solution for the poop chute and to hold the AMS up so I can move the glass panel. And, I replaced the hotend wit

I can’t wait for the day for this to say “Genuine BambuLab filament required to print”

Personally I bought a P1s because it was the cheapest and best printer I could see after my Prusa mini started to show it's age. You don't see many builders giveing such personality to their hammers, it's a tool.

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.

CORE One Mini - Plexiglass, Polycarbonate and Paint

OP is converting Prusa Mini+ (old but still reliable bedslinger) into a mini version of Core One. Why? Because why not ;)? Edit - I stand corrected, see u/suit1337's response.

Can you tell me which pieces need a replacement?

It seems to be a "Prusa" i3 Hephestos by ex BQ Reader, now BQ. It was my first 3D printer in 2014 and it sucked; when I got a Original Prusa MINI I printed with more filament in a week than what I have managed to use/waste in years with the Hephestos :D

Show us your mods! We want to put YOU on stage at SMRRF!

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

Im looking for a second smaller printer

Prusa mini is such a fun machine to modify. I've also got a mini that has been my Frankenstein, and it's such a reliable machine now.
