3DPrinting

AnkerMake M5

MK3s with an MK4 ordered. My wife also recently got an Anycubic Photon D2

My first printer was a Artillery Sidewinder X2, but I've pretty much completely switched to a Bambu Lab X1 Carbon now. I never really had too many issues with the SWX2, but the allure of multi-material and faster prints was too much.

I'm running a Prusa Mini at home, and a Markforged Mark Two and Ultimaker S5 at the office. I've been considering a MK4 for home, but I don't really use my Mini enough to justify it.

Started with an Ender 3 V2, which I tried modding with BLtouch because I hated the lack of auto bed leveling. Eventually I just got so frustrated that I got a Prusa i3 MK3S+ and I love it to death. It was just a quantum leap over the Ender and well worth the price bump. I’ve lately been selling prints for profit and have been eyeing the Bambulab X1 Carbon for its speed and the AMS.

A BambuLabs X1 Carbon (a nice printer that would be great if they didn't close source it)
A modded Voxelab Aquila (Ender3v2 clone used to learn, break, and train my patience)
I'm thinking Voron next, but I'll see what's out there when it's time to expand.

Ender 3 Pro with Klipper, SKR, dual Z, solid mounts, slice engineering bimetal heatbrake, 84mm Noctua for power supply and 4010 for mobo, PEI sheet, Noctua 4020 fan and dual 5015 satsana duct on Speeddrive with a BMG clone

Ender 5 Pro with Klipper, same direct drive setup as the 3 but stock cooling fans and housing, microswiss all metal hotend.

The 3 sits by me in the office and is completely silent idling and barely noticeable when running. Mostly use it for prototyping with PETG, running 100mm/s at 3.2k accel

The 5 is in the garage and prints CF Nylon, Nylon, ABS and glow in the darks and sometimes TPU.

Started with Ender 3 but got annoyed with it not being very reliable for me (probably due to my own modifications). Now using the Sovol SV06 and very happy with it so far after a couple months.

Snapmaker2 A150, which is actually a 3D printer/laser etcher/CNC three-in-one. A very small one (160x160x150mm print volume), but then I don't have space for anything larger. Not the fastest printer, but good enough for the (Kickstarter-backer) price that I paid for it and it worked adequately out of the box.

Wanhao i3 Duplicator was my first printer. Used it for ever but I finally gave up on it after countless hours modifying and upgrading it.

Bought a p1p and holy shit is this thing amazing. I should have done this so much sooner.

Just built and enclosure for the p1p, and I am going to salvage what I can from the i3 and make a voron 0.2

I'm using a Prusa Mini, works perfectly, no tuning, but I want to get an 0.6mm nozzle at some point.

Primary: Artillery Sidewinder X1, absolutely stock except for parts that needed replacement but even those are just part swap, no upgrades or mods.

Secondary: MP Select mini Frame and some motors. The board is the motherboard form a Tronxy X5S. the bed is a manual replacement from an off brand and it has an off the shelf 12 V 300W PSU.

AnyCubic Chiron. Still going after many years, though sometimes I do need to spritz the plate with cheap hairspray to help adhesion

All my printing is done at my local makerspace. We have:

3 x Ultimaker 2+ 3 x Ultimaker 2+ extended Formlabs Form 3b Markforged mkII

Most of my printing is in the Ultimakers but I use the form 3b for anything small or that needs that extra find detail. I havent found a good reason to use the Markforged yet (the consumables are quite expensive) but should be fun when the need arises :)

In the order of acquisition:

• Ender 3 (Converted to an Ender Extender 400xl). Dragon hotend and EZR struder.
• Ender 3 Pro with dragon hotend, EZR struder (currently being fitted with a Sherpa Mini DD). Running Klipper.
• Ender 5 with Biqu H2 v2s Revo (recently got all the parts to convert this one to a Zero G Mercury one.1).
• Sovol sv04 (With Copperhead heatbteaks).
• Ender 2 Pro with E3D Revo Hotend and MicroSwiss Bowden extruder. Running Klipper.
• Voron V2.4r2 350mm.

Currently all are operational except the Ender 3 pro, due to the Biqu H2 v1 blowing up on me last weekend and forcing an upfra to the dragon+Sherpa_mini+HeroMe toolhead.

Bought Ultimaker 2+ long time ago. Its amazing and it is a reason why my older prusa like printer is collecting dust. I wouldnt buy it again tho, because there are much cheaper printers available

I have a couple of prusa mk3s one of which I'm upgrading to the 4

Ender 3 with BL-TOUCH, that BTT drop in replacement board with silent steppers (the first model), geared extruder, Micro Swiss nozzle, Creality glass bed, unholy loud Sunon fan on the block and a few printed extras.

Then a Monoprice Mini Select v2 with an aluminum extruder. Both have their Raspberry with camera and Octoprint.

Also a super dusty Elegoo Mars 2.
