I’m thinking about buying a small 3D printer for the odd project once in a while.

Problem is, I will not use it very often and I don’t have much desk space for it to sit around.

Ideally (and I know this is utopia), I would like a device that I can pull out of a closet, fasten four screws, plug it in and be ready to go.

Is there something even remotely like that available? Every review I’ve seen just seems to assume that printers are basically static.

    Idunno why you would want a 3d printer for a print here and there. Most of the fun with 3d printing comes with the printer itself. Hot end gets clogged, bed adhesion problems, levelling problems, diagnosing and going overboard on a simple fix, that what the fun is all about.

      Well, I don’t want to do that. For me a printer is a tool, not something to tinker with.

      I get where you’re coming from, but I’m tinkering at another front.
