Buy an original Prusa MK3 directly from Prusa. The clones are not as good. The MK3 prints great from day one and it does not require any fussing.

The kits are ready to go. Takes ~7 days to receive.

get the kit, It is good to assemble the unit so you know how to repair and upgrade it. They are very popular. A year ago the wait was close to 6 months for a kit. They are worth waiting for

What sites can you point me to look at that have designs ready to print for this unit?

I dont quite get what you're saying?

Its for apex- gives you physical interface instead of needing to use your phone/Alexa

Hey @TheHarold how are you liking the icecap lenses?

I am considering them. The price seems really low.

Thoughts?

 

[dantimdad]

Also what kind of build plate it that? Love the texture!

It's awesome. I will post photos now in my build thread and tag you. Also, I would be happy to send you the. file for my organizer

So the Prusa powder coated sheet has been on backorder for over a year. I ordered from TheKkiinngg on amazon- powder coated PEI plate. Its really improved the final product appearance.

I use a touch screen anymore no physical buttons. I did the physical button thing 12 years ago.

Ahh then you might not get the point of this. It’s a reef. Wet hands. Mysis hands. Internet down. Etc. Sometimes touch screen is not the best option
