This looks right in my price range for my next upgrade. I want a core xy, I’ve been on bed slingers, so this looks good.
Important information needs no excessive words. See the picture. 👇 So, about the early bird price for SV08… ❓ 👉https://landing.sovol3d.com/8XS
I don’t know anything about 3D printing, but I make stuff all the time. (
As background, I have done casual woodworking for ~20 years, lots of DIY, lots of tinkering with small swappable parts for making home items, I recently started using epoxies and resins to a solid effect. I’m excellent as t learning software, which is really my primary skill everything cognitive relies upon.
Would this be a good entry level device? If no, what do you recommend?
I don’t think I would recommend a printer like this as an entry point.
Go with a Prusa (any of them are good, choose the right size for you). Or if you don’t care that much about open source, check out the bambulab P1P or the other ones from them. They are very good at multi color printing.
This will be cheaper than any voron 2.4 kit + 3D printed parts and also fully assembled? Sounds great!
Voron is not designed to be cheap. So I guess they have done quite a bit of cost optimization in the design.
We don’t know yet if these optimizations are cutting any big corners, but I guess yes.
For example: at this price point you will likely not get a thick aluminum build plate with AC heater, you will not get a high quality hotend, etc…
Neat! I’ve been looking for an CoreXY for sub 1k. Also open source and fast - very exciting! I’ll wait for the reviews to see if it holds up to the promises.
