I've developed a few prejudices regarding 3D printers: I don't like the ones which constantly move the build plate laterally, that just seems like it's begging for trouble. Add to that a tipsy tower with limited (if any) box structure and OMG a Bowden and it's a complete non-starter for me. That approach strikes me as akin to the dancing bear analysis. WRT Delta's, I might put a toe in the water with the new Monoprice Mini Delta once it's generally available. I love the price point on that little puppy, particularly as a surprisingly well featured, fully assembled printer. But honestly, I find the motion that Delta's make just too organic and it kinda creeps me out. TBD Prior to 3D printers I was always entranced by pen plotters, so there's some history there. The orthogonal stuff is just more engaging to me.
If there were a fully assembled large scale 3D printer that fit my (arguably narrow) requirements, and was under $1000, that'd be of interest to me, but I've not found any so far.
