<p>Brought Everyone Up to Speed on What I Plan to Do</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>I Created this page, as i am saving up to buy one and am currently lost in the see of printers and clone kits.<br /> <br /> The Original Prusa i3 MK3s is great, but costs ~1,000 which is quite an investment.<br /> <br /> The creality ender... and clones seems good, but bowden tubes are problematic from what I have heard so I am looking for direct drive<br /> <br /> I&#039;m wanting an auto leveling and heated bed, although that is a want not a need (i guess)<br /> <br /> I am lost on motion controll options<br /> <br /> I don&#039;t need any fancy interface, all I want is an SD card reader (full size preferably, yet not required), and a usb port (for later octoprint install long term)<br /> <br /> I don&#039;t know how I will do with building. The screws and all that seem fine. My only worry is dealing with mains voltage, and micro soldering (arduino soldering due to shorting out/bad solders, although I NEED TO LEARN EVENTUALLY I KNOW) although I can solder join wires well,as well as do PCBs with a decent enough gap between solder points<br /> <br /> So that is my situation with this, hope you can help, and hope this helps anyone else in my situation<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> --[[User:Eric|Eric]] ([[User talk:Eric|talk]]) 01:23, 19 November 2019 (UTC)<br /> <br /> ----</div>
