    I'm actually impressed with this kit... I wish it was the first printer i had bought... he fixed probably 99% of the issues that the original 12" had, the biggest being the wooden Y carriage that warped uncontrollably when at temp... though I will say a 12V 30A power supply is barely enough for the printer. The bed alone needs a 12V 30A power supply and a 20A powersupply for the hotend and electronics if you want the bed to heat in under 45 min to ABS temps...

    I use a 12V 30A PSU and it powers my 12" just fine. I will be purchasing this printer soon, I have been waiting all month for this release.

    I just finished recording a video between my 12in and my flashforge creator pro heatup time. Both extruder and heatbed on both. It took my 12in 3minutes and 30sec or less to heat complete both extruder and heatbed to abs temp and my flashforge creator pro took 9 minutes to heat complete to abs temp. Ill post a video soon. With a 12v 30A power supply on my makerfarm.

    Wait for the deluxe version. It will cost the same. You will get a better looking printer. Unless he decides to sell the acrylic cover in the future separate than order it now.

    From makerfarm site. It should not be any longer before is out.

    The Deluxe Kit Option will just be an additional kit which can be purchased at any time once released. The Deluxe Kit will be the same price as the Basic kit and Deluxe Upgrade kit.

    Thanks for the heads up I just emailed Colin as it does not make sense to make the Deluxe and basic kit the same price.

    I order my kit around the same time you did 2014 we both join the forum in the same month. Maybe the power supply was to blame. I bought this one http://openbuildspartstore.com/12v-30a-power-supply/

    My abs temp I set were 230 for both extruder and 110 for bed.
