Where do you keep getting printers from? :LOL:

Any chance of pics?

Buy one or two, play with 'em, get bored and then rinse and repeat :ROFLMAO: The 3D printer obsession goes many many moons back.
Will post some pics in a bit
 
How does this compare to the Ender 3 and 5? I've been researching them - and then they ran out of stock.

Hope I'm not intruding on the thread, but these features are not on the default Ender 3/5
Autolevel Inductive Bed Leveling
Direct Drive - Charlextruder
Ender 3/5 has manual bed leveling and a Bowden-style extruder

@Qui_Illustrati might have done more upgrades, but those are the more glaring diffs I can see.

Side-by-side, purely from a specs and capability position, it's much of a muchness really. The end result, which is actual print quality and reliability, is going to be indistinguishable in my opinion. Both, Prusa and Ender, are renowned for their out the box capability and also the sheer number of aftermarket mods available to either platforms. And not just mods you can buy, like different motors and and rods and belts etc, but also mods you can print on the actual printer you have to make that same printer better :D

The 2 glaring differences are exactly as @eyesuc mentioned. That being said though, I do personally prefer a Direct Drive extruder as opposed to the Bowden and of course ABL certainly a is nice addition, if one prefers that. Also, a direct drive extruder and ABL can be added to an Ender after the fact too.
 
BUMP.

And NO provisional dibs and time wasting or shenanigans like having to get permission from your wife, girlfriend, mom and dad before you can buy.

Price drop to R4000
