    Maker Farm i3 Prusa 8" PrinterN

    I have an 8' i3 Prusa printer from Maker Farm. I have only just completed assembling it, and now I am coming to terms with getting it up and running.

    This printer has a laser cut plywood frame, NEMA 17 stepper motors, RAMPS controller and a Greg's Accessible Extruder with a 0.4mm Magma extruder. Purchase price is $US585.

    In this post I am only going to upload a picture of the printer, but shortly I will be posting a review of the machine and its assembly.

    Congrats on the new printer. I'm running the same setup but with the upgraded Bowden Cable. I think you'll really like it after calibration Enjoy!

    Well Makerfarm is one of the best prusa i3's imo, its the most cheap and complete i could find,
    And the support AKA Colin is super responsive and friendly ^^
    I only think there warranty of 1 month should be 3-5.

    Also they are atm working with a Dual extrusion kit and Auto Bed leveling ^^

    I love my makerfarm i3 too, Colin does a fantastic job on both the kit and the support, he answered my questions very quickly,

    Great bang for the buck.
