First post.

I am a retired CNC machinist. I owned a machine shop and programed my mills using Mastercam for a few decades.
So I have an idea of what is going on, but have never had a 3D printer.

Can't remember how/why I started with this make but I have been looking at the Creality CR-10S S4 printer.
I like the 400 x 400 area and the price is right at the maximum that I want to spend.
Having had a few CNC mills I know that there is never enough work envelope so for now I figure this will probably do.

What I would like are suggestions on other makes that are about the same size and price, although cheaper is always better.
Everyone seems to be out of Creality CR-10S S4 printer stock. I guess this means it's popular?

Suggestions?
Thanks
