  • Before you buy it, I always suggest you rent or borrow one and make sure it works for you.

    I was going to choose a Canon based on specs and reviews. I rented one and hated it. All the functions were on the back and I found it quite hard to get in the flow, spending all my time “chimping” the menus.

    I borrowed a friends Nikon, and found all the buttons I wanted were where my fingers were, and I just naturally found it gelled. I found I spent more time taking the pictures I wanted, and less time messing around.

    My partner on the other hand hates my Nikon, and has a Canon that she loves…



  • Check your z offset, first layer squish and extrusion multiplier, then pressure advance.

    That looks like too much filament or too close to the bed. Some of the edge artifacts could be pressure advance as well.

    I spent a year chasing those problems out of a printer, and had hundreds of FL tests that looked just like that.

    If you’re interested, Ellis 3D tuning guide is amazing. (I use a different pressure advance calibration method, but the rest has been bang on for me…)








  • I spent a year trying to get my Prusa factory assembled mk4s to print properly. Prusa support even eventually sent me a full replacement printer that had the EXACT same problem out of the box.

    I returned it, bought an LDO Voron kit for a 2.4 350mm and haven’t looked back.

    The kit had pre made harnesses, which was 100% the right move for me.

    (Incidentally, the drawers for my desk I was trying to print on the Prusa originally are now printed and finished on the Voron, and working great…)
