Eric A. MeyerRather unexpectedly, a 3D printer is soon to enter my life (long story). It seems like printers are either entry-level $300-$400, or higher-end $1,000+. Is there anything worthwhile in the $750 area? This will be hobby-use only, not for business purposes or mass production. It cannot be resin for a variety of reasons, and I will not budge on this.
Adam Brandon@Meyerweb Gonna pile on with the bambu folks here, if you want to actually get prints done with the least amount of friction.. go bambu. If you want to write Zen and the Art of 3d Printer Maintenance, get something else..
aeberbach@nottadamb @Meyerweb Ignoring Prusa of course. Higher price, no forced cloud participation. To me it’s worth it.
@aeberbach @Meyerweb I run mine lan only mode 🤷
@nottadamb @Meyerweb is Louis Rossman wrong? Says “authorization is required” to initiate a print job, even via LAN.
@aeberbach No idea, but I print locally to mine all day without being authorized through bambucloud. I just have a bambuddy instance setup and i can hit that through a vpn tunnel if i want to send stuff to it remotely..
