    I am still using my modified Anet A8 for printing, but not sure if it counts as old already :)

      Isn’t it older than the cr-10? so would say it counts for me definitely as old :)

        Have now checked and my Anet is from August 2017, so six years in human-years. In two months it has birthday and becomes 42 3d-printer-years ;)

    I have an old prusa i3 mk1 that I’ve converted to a laser engraver, it no longer 3d prints but is still useful in a new way

    I have a running Printrbot Simple Metal, but i’m not really using it anymore. Last print was around Christmas. My main machine is an Elegoo Neptune 2.
