Opinions about this DIY Printer - Prusia Tairona

[levalencia]

Hello

I found this local course to learn how to assemble a 3d Printer,

The printer is a Prusa Tairona.

SO the question is, would you assist to this course if you were a beginner? is this a good printer at the end?

from what i can see it's a fairly standard prusa i3. So as long as the course isn't too expensive.
Yep sounds like a good idea to me :-)

I called them and sounds like a good thing, because at the end I kept the printer for my self with the course cost, In USD the course costs 673 dollars. and If I signup they will give me 2kgs of filament included.
And also by signing with them they told me I get a better price of filaments for life, (5 dollars less)

They also told me this printer is compatible with a lot of thermoplastics.
ABS
PLA
HIPS
TPU
PETG
WOOD

looks like a good option to me?

WHen researching about the course they told me they use DRV8825 drivers which are better than the normal ones that come with the Prusia, I have no idea what the driver is, can someone explain? is this the motherboard or circuit that controls the movement of the extruder?
