Topic: How many 3d printers do you have?

Right now I have 2, da vinci 1.0(1st gen) & nobel 1.0.

today i get my 3rd printer, a da vinci 1.0(2nd gen) i got it off ebay for $200.

most likely i will get my 4th 3d printer by the end of the year, and i was hoping on getting a higher end FDM 3d printer, any suggestions/recommendations?

Thanks

Re: How many 3d printers do you have?

I am done with XYZ..

I have as you can see in my sig a CT'c that was converted and is now perfect in every way. I also have Mini Kossel Delta that actually is going up for sale soon. The CT'c is a dual and can print any filament out there so I have no need for the Delta any longer and I am tired of the calibration hassle it needs.

Printing since 2009 and still love it!

Re: How many 3d printers do you have?

I currently have one at the moment, a Da Vinci 2.0 with repetier firmware (who doesn't?) and the clear plastic sides taken off for added air flow.
When I ordered mine I originally planned on getting the 1.0 for the bed size, but alas it was around Christmas and was out of stock. 
Though the dual extruders are found useful for me because I don't have to worry about using different filaments on the one extruder if I had the 1.0. (clogging issues) So I basically use the second extruder for PLA and others while I use the first one for only ABS.

But now I'm thinking about trashing XYZ and going reprap... wink

Mine is the all metal CT'c with a dual extruder. Mine has the Display offset to the right side with sd slot on the right side of the machine. When I got it on ebay they just came out with the metal one and it was $600 with shipping. Now they are $899 and up if you can find one.

This is the one I bought and it looks like the price has come back down on it.

If you want to buy from the US then you can buy from this guy. It is the same printer, just rebranded. Still getting about the same reviews which are positive.

Re: How many 3d printers do you have?

I have 3 1.0A, all are modded to run on Bowden and E3D hotends. Besides those I have a FlashForge duplicator dual and the CTC dual. I also have a homebuilt CoreXY and my latest printer will be arriving in January. That one has a 12x12x24 print envelope.

that style printer seems best choice now for the cost and duel extruder. maybe a Delta type later if a bigger print is needed.

Solidoodle 2 with Deluxe kit cover & glass bed with heater. and 2nd board SD2 used not 3rd and alum platform not installed yet still wood. also need cooling fan installed to board. use Repetier Host couple vers. Slic3r also have all free ware STL programs
