This looks right in my price range for my next upgrade. I want a core xy, I’ve been on bed slingers, so this looks good.
Important information needs no excessive words. See the picture. 👇 So, about the early bird price for SV08… ❓ 👉https://landing.sovol3d.com/8XS
Too soon. It needs reviews. If you’re looking to just get started, find a smaller, cheaper printer that’s a at least 6 months old and has good reviews. Most printer companies send out review units to a bunch of youtubers, so reviews should be easy for a reputable company. Don’t get a great value special from alibaba.
It’s a different skillset than woodworking. It’s very close to manufacturing/process-engineering. (Which I am IRL.) A smaller printer has fewer quirks and any mistakes are going to waste less material. It’s also cheaper, so you don’t spend a lot of money on something if you decide you don’t like it.
Unfortunately this also means that it’s not easy to know which reviews you can trust. Even if some youtuber isn’t paid in cash for a positive review, it’s still in their interest to make the manufacturer happy so they keep getting free stuff in the future. Neither does it help that most reviews have affiliate links, so they have an additional financial incentive to convince you to buy the product.
Yeah this is why I like communities like this
Yep. I also like the 3D Printing Discord server, since many there have first hand experience with multiple printers. It’s of course also interesting to hear about the experience those who only own a single printer have had, but occasionally someone claims the printer they own is a great choice for beginners despite having spent hundreds, and countless hours, on fixes and upgrade to get it in a usable state :D
