  It says “imported” so probably made for a fraction of that in China.

  Official repo says $114 per arm, but I didn’t check their math :) github.com/huggingface/lerobot

  Was just thinking that if the goal of your video was to showcase the difference between the bed slinger and the corexy, then it would’ve made a stronger point if you took advantage of its full potential. The MK4 even looks faster in the video, but I suspect it could be the angle and that the bed moving making its motions more visible.

  At that printing speed I doubt it makes any difference if the bed is moving or stationary :) Surely the Prusa XL could go much faster than this?

  I often refer to this list maintained by some people I trust over at the 3D Printing discord. Unfortunately it seems like they don’t update it as often nowadays, but Qidi Q1 Pro has been around for long enough, and it is indeed one of their top picks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is everyone using as a HTPC?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Intel NUC running Linux. Not the cheapest solution but can play anything and I have full control over it. At first I tried to find some kind of programmable remote but now we have a wireless keyboard with built-in touchpad.

  Biggest downside is that the hardware quality is kind of questionable and the first two broke after 3 years + a few months, so we’re on our third now.

  Cleaning the print surface with warm water and soap, and then avoiding touching it with your hands, is a good start if you haven’t done so alreayd. Calibrating first layer height, flow rate, temperatures, etc. is generally the way, but if you want a quick and easy solution I gotta say that Magigoo has worked really well for me. It’s a bit expensive, but I’ve reapplied it a few times and never have to wash the bed so that one bottle will likely last a lifetime. I think you can get similar results with a high PVA content glue stick or hair spray. And there are of course other 3d print glues which I haven’t tried, I’m assuming they work equally well.
