Prusa i3 MK3. I love this thing!

This one (I think) Not a bad price from what I see https://shop.prusa3d.com/en/3d-print...oaAgghEALw_wcB

Yep, that's the one. I got the kit version, and it only took one evening to assemble, maybe 4 hours total. The instruction manual is both very well written, and it is interactive, kind of like a forum thread where users can give tips and assembly advice. It was very helpful to me when something stated in the manual was confusing, but then made clear when it was put into "plain English" for us clueless folk. :)

If you want to save $150, the MK2S is a solid performer, and has been a workhorse for me the past year and a half, with over 100 DAYS worth of operating time. Minor issues sprung up over the past ~4 months, but all quick fixes. I am considering purchasing a second printer, and I very likely might just get another MK2S rather than the newer MK3

Steve, thanks for the TV plates!

Prusa i3 MK3 Kit Version here as well. I'm very happy with it, no issues at all.

Looks like I will be going with the Prusa. It's within my pricing limits and appears to be the one most used among the modelers here. Thanks for the input.

Although I don't have it yet, this is what I intend to purchase as well. Seems to be very highly recommended by just about everyone I talk to about 3d printing.

I almost got the Prusa Mk3 but a heck of a deal came up on a printer from a guy at work which included his assistance plus at the time the Mk3 was still not quite shipping out yet so I went with a modified Anet A8 but I would like to get the Mk3 in the future. I could almost use 2 printers now. Hard to believe I am saying that but it is true.

[purduephigam]

I think the real message here is, one can never have too many 3D printers.

Here's the PDF file. When printing, choose "Actual Size" from the print options list.

Hey Pat, which of those pictures should be printed for the screens? I'm guessing it's the top one. Let me know please.

Brad,

Yes, first pic is for the 5 main glass panels. Here's what I posted before that:

And here are the picture files I used for my instrument panel. The first is for the 5 main glass panels, and the second is for the glass panel in the center bottom. I didn't like my painting skills on the top center display for the radio settings, so I sanded down the face and used the third pic to show the detail.

So is there any news about the main gear doors?

[Rcfiddy1]

What are most of you using for a 3D printer? I'm starting to think seriously about investing in one but don't want to drop my life savings in the process.

Can someone possibly contact alpha to enquire about it?

Hot off the printer: The F-22 Main Wheel Hubcap
Not a snap-on design, a bit of glue will be required.

[Pogo]

I was hoping someone with the skill to do this would, well, do it! Thank you!:Cool:

Hello: I'm new to Hobby Squawk and have found this forum very helpful. I've just purchased the F22 and it will be delivered Tuesday. I was hoping to get a jump on the 3DPUPs but have come across a snag with the canopy frame. It's too large for my printer. I have a 200mmx200x180mm volume but the frame is too large. any help would be appreciated.
