Quite fun and satisfying
I did make a few mistakes, but wholly my own, and avoidable by reading the actual instructions
Benchy test print (15 minutes) is complete, so I guess I can start planning holiday show-bag gifts for nieces and nephews
Don MacKinnon (Oct 14 2025 at 05:13):36 hours is actually not bad. I assembled a prusa clone kit a few years back and I remember it taking me several weeks to get it up and running. Granted the instructions were terrible because it was google translated from Mandarin I suspect. Once it was actually assembled getting everything dialed in and tuning marlin and repetier settings took even longer.
Bjørn Gustav Baklid (Oct 21 2025 at 17:29):Awesome job!
These are also great for gifts https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/really-annoying-card-container-upgrade-kit-2
Ron Waldon-Howe (Oct 21 2025 at 22:06):Haha, that annoying container looks annoying to assemble, too, haha
Bjørn Gustav Baklid (Oct 27 2025 at 09:29):Absolutely!
Gave my wife a good laugh when she realized I had to screw in each of the 96 screws.
The gift was defiantly a hit though so I would say it was worth it.
Those maze puzzle containers are great as well
