Help me pick a dual extruder printer
At work I design parts and I hate supports. I have a Prusa MK2 and MK3 that I have printed thousand of parts with. I just don't have the time to clean up supports and some designs simply can't be cleaned up of the supports. So now I'm looking for a 3D printer that has dual extruders to user a soluble support material.
I purchased the Prusa multi-material upgrades kit and it was rubbish. Never been able to get a single print with that abomination. Wasted many hours with disassembly, reassembly, recalibration, etc. I don't have the time to keep messing with it. (I'm very good at assembling things so I believe it just has issues.)
I was toying with the idea of a desktop SLS but that is going to run $10K and the mess and hassle is probably not worth it as I'm probably fine with a lower cost solution such as using a dual extruder 3D printer.
This is what I'm looking for:
Build size at least 9.5" in one dimension (229 mm).
Reliable quality printer that does not require constant tinkering
Preferably self leveling heatbed
Removable heatbed
Thanks for any recommendations!
Ender 3v2 poor printing quality
