  • Not a fucked up mess…. Yet!

    But we’re working on it! Here at the CIA our goal is to give you the freedom every red blooded American enjoys! Like the freedom to never go to the doctor because of the cost! Being shot at school because religious nut jobs think Jesus wants it that way! Work your self to death to stay just below the poverty line! Watch as the social safety net your forefathers literally died for gets eroded away as you too embrace Christo-facism!

    We can’t WAIT to bring this opportunity to your shores! Work with us in serving the billionaire working class and enjoy all the benefits above!

  • Lemme propose an alternative. Build a Voron. You’ll get just as good print with all the faetures , and when you are done you will UNDERSTAND 3D printing at a level neither of the the two options will provide.

    Don’t get me wrong, prusa and bambu printers are incredible, but Vorons are every bit as good, fully open source and nothing is gonna make you understand the hobby as much as building one

  • The extenders on ender 3s are all sorts of trash, the bronze gear wears out pretty fast, tensioning issues, build quality.

    How you have 100h on one is frankly a miracle. I have multiple ender3 s and I just immediately change out the extruder at this point.

  • Not really, first thing is going to happen is it’s going to start under extruding and the flow is interrupted (trust me I have multiple ender 3’s, I’ve lived this :D )

    Eventually no amount of adjusting will fix it, but at the start you’ll just get some weird layer lines, under extrusion, retraction issues. It’ll just get worse and worse

    I REALLY hate the ender extruders hehe. I do have to admit they did train me to troubleshoot extruder issues really well though

  • That’s not true, those gears (especially in the stock ender Bowden setups) are extremely trash. It doesn’t even take a lot of filament to get visible wear on the teeth to the point you get slippage.

    Coupled with it being a single gear means wear on the teeth is even more prone to failure.

    There’s a reason all of the higher quality extruders are double gear and hardened steel teeth vs. bronze. Just like nozzles wear out so do extruders

  • We do, everything that matters is metric but societal change is hard. We can’t even get boomers to vote for the party that DOESNT want to take away their social security. How can we get them to use liters after a lifetime of gallons?

  • Downsides and upsides are what you’ve listed here. Also, resin isn’t just stinky, it’s toxic, and setup and tear down is a pain in the ass.

    Like a HUGE pain in the ass,

    Resin prints are also brittle, so unless your just using it for minis, FDM is still more useful/ fun
