🌟 **3D Printer Recommendations Needed!** 🌟

I’m diving into the world of additive manufacturing and need your help!

I’m looking for an inexpensive 3D printer (under $500) that’s perfect for a free and open-source software (FOSS) enthusiast like me.

🔍 Here are my criteria:
- **Budget:** Under $500
- **User-Friendly:** Easier to start with than a Voron 2.4
- **Hacking-Friendly:** I’d love the ability to tinker and customize!

What 3D printer would you recommend for someone just starting out? Share your thoughts and experiences in the comments! Your insights will help me make the right choice. Thank you! 😊

After we got our #Bambu #P1S printer I have printed out more things than I did before we got it. Before this I had a #Ender3v2 and before that a #Monoprice printer that only printed PLA. But dear wholy, nothing has gone wrong, only prints that have failed were because of the design (pegs not joined with the body in one #Skadis thing I made).

So this is the feeling other 3D printing people have been feeling all the time? I love it!

Finally decided to get a new 3d printer - an Anycubic Kobra 2 Neo. Gotta say, I'm pretty impressed with this thing over the old Monoprice Minis that I have for my classroom. I don't know what I ever did without auto-leveling. I'm currently using it to print E3D upgrade brackets for said monoprice printers.

Somewhere along the way, I forgot that #Monoprice was a thing. I used to love those guys. Guessing I forgot about them as I got sucked into Amazon's gravity well.

Anyway, glad to see they are still alive and kicking. I suspect I'll be giving them a lot more business with my attempt to slow business w/ #Amazon.
