🌟 **3D Printer Recommendations Needed!** 🌟

I’m diving into the world of additive manufacturing and need your help!

I’m looking for an inexpensive 3D printer (under $500) that’s perfect for a free and open-source software (FOSS) enthusiast like me.

🔍 Here are my criteria:
- **Budget:** Under $500
- **User-Friendly:** Easier to start with than a Voron 2.4
- **Hacking-Friendly:** I’d love the ability to tinker and customize!

What 3D printer would you recommend for someone just starting out? Share your thoughts and experiences in the comments! Your insights will help me make the right choice. Thank you! 😊

Me today: #anycubic #kobra3 feels too closed. Nothing is available without using their cloud, which is too proprietary. I think I'll need to get rid of it.
Me now: oh, wow, that changes everything! https://github.com/systemik/Kobra3-Firmware

What are #3Dprinters good for?

Printing toys for the grandkids of course.....

Made a #BenchyBoat 100% bigger then the original (or 200%)..... well, because the new printer can handle larger prints better then my older printers could. And because the grandkid thinks I'm a toy maker.

I guess, I am kind of.

My first #BencyBoat with the #Anycubic #Kobra3 #3dprinter
Right at 40 minutes, and it's as good as any of my old printers, just faster.

A little stringing, and a little dimple on the back, and really can't read the back plate. But otherwise I don't really see anything wrong with this.

I love my new #3dprinter The #Anycubic #Kobra3 (multi-color capable) fast, pretty good prints, and super easy to setup.

I didn't even need to setup an account (the manual kind of makes it sound like you need an online account)

There are only two things that I kind of question, one was a pretty easy fix, thou took a little setup.

1) Why is the Ace Multi Filament box connector on the front of the machine
2) no official support for Linux

For the 2nd they provide a #OrcaSlicer profile

I've kind of been saving this -
I made a trip up to #Columbus #Ohio this morning, because #Microcenter has the #Anycubic #Kobra3 #3Dprinter Before i went up I reversed it online, just so I knew I wouldn't be wasting a trip up.
And I also decided to look to see what they had on clearance.....
And I found 2 #Biqu #Bigtreetech 3d printers, one was $80.00 and one was $56.00

I didn't really need 3 brand new printers, but at that price it's hard to pass them up.

Finally decided to get a new 3d printer - an Anycubic Kobra 2 Neo. Gotta say, I'm pretty impressed with this thing over the old Monoprice Minis that I have for my classroom. I don't know what I ever did without auto-leveling. I'm currently using it to print E3D upgrade brackets for said monoprice printers.
