For dedicated...

yeah - we get a lot, not sure anyone else removes it and I'm only one person :-)

Not sure reposting it for them is a terribly good idea though ;-)

okay @ hook13
Firstly you CANNOT get everything on your list for 300 ? what ?:- bucks, pounds, australian dollars, canadian dollars, shekels - give us a clue here :-)

Secondly: ALL ender...

yes.
It's just a pain sourcing all the bits individually, and generally works out more expensive than buying a kit.
Which is why so many people buy a kit and then modify it.
:-)

well personally I wouldn't touch an ender 3 with an extremely long bargepole.
not a great design and for every one that works we have 20 people on here with problems.
If you're going for an I3...

as far as the ender 3 goes - the bowden extruder and v slot wheels for the bed - are NEGATIVE features :-)
Plus no side support for the bed.

current makerbots are massively over priced and not very reliable.

the dremel is a flashforge made machine.
Essentially it's a tricked out replicator pro.
So unless you need the camera - then one of these is essentially the same machine for about half the price:...

lol at the end of the day 99% are ALL chinese brands.
If not put together in china - then most of the components will be :-)

the hp is in a slightly different price bracket: Well over $100,000
On top of that you also need the post processing unit - probably another $50,000

the qidi is still a very good buy.
But almost the same price range (if you go for the kit) is the prusa i3 mk3 - bang up to date tech wise with some really great features....

the buccaneer is still going ?
thought that sunk without trace years ago.

yep it's actually number 3 or 4 in the above list qidi:...

Okay. Guess i can add to it as other stuff occurs to me :-)

fusion 360 is a solid modelling cad program and you can only print solid models. So that's a good start.

Sheesh - the number of machines in the sub $2500 category is enormous.

I don't usually...
