Recently I started printing on Bambulab (previously on Průša Mini). If anyone is curious about how much difference is it

          I’ve got one now with a V6 knockoff hot end, steel PEI print bed, and running klipper firmware. It was backup printer, and now it’s the backup to the backup (purchased Comgrow $70 used Ender 3 pro).

          I’d like to give this to a friend that’s interested in printing, but I’d have to flash back to stock firmware. The buttons and display don’t work with klipper, and I don’t have a spare raspberry pi.

          It’s still relevant with the upgrades I made to it, except it’s still has really noisy steppers, and the build volume is so small it’s really limiting. I think the Prusa mini is still large enough to be practical. The monoprice is mostly relegated to toys.

          I need some 18650 holders for a project which the mini can do great with, but I need a lot and printing them two or three at a time won’t cut it.

      Nice. Personally, I don’t think that I could find use for that size. I wanted little bigger than 220x220mm because projects

        I got a 300x300mm Sidewinder X2. It’s just big enough to fit my noggin and therefore print a helmet capable of fitting my noggin.

        Yeah that is a tough size if it’s all you have. When I fist got mine I had just the mini and a CR10s 400 which is 400x400mm so anything I could get away with on the little guy I did and kept the big projects on the monster.
