Comment on Which Core XY printer?
AnyOldName3@lemmy.world 1 week agoIt’s also been on a few really good sales on AliExpress over the past few months, and it’s taken a lot of self-control not to buy myself an entirely unnecessary second SV08 given how impressed I’ve been with mine and the sales taking a third off the cost of the printer.
That said, I have replaced the bed on mine with a graphite one because the stock one’s pretty thin and can warp. Particularly annoyingly, after being hot for about 40 minutes, it’d ping from being warped in one direction to being warped in the other direction, so prints either had to be finished before that or wait until after before they started. It’s not strictly necessary, but it was worth upgrading the bed when there was a price cut to save myself some annoyance and let me fit bed fans so printing ABS was less warp-prone.

Super interested in the graphite bed, could you share some links ? I would love to avoid heat soaking mine for half an hour before each print ;)

I got it from here. I don’t think anyone else makes one for the SV08.
