During my break, I made sure to get testing for this underway. Then all of the Bambu drama happened, so a test on an alternative will be timely.
Here is an exclusive behind the scenes video of my testing so far. It prints PLA really well, and will do PETG and ASA well with an appropriate be...

Hello Patrons!
In case you didn't know, we have a section on our forum where all of the TT YouTube videos are posted early without ads. This also gives you a chance to comment and discuss your thoughts without them being lost in the vast and sometimes frustrating YouTube comment section.

I’m tired of manufacturers contacting me to review cut-price clone 3D printers. These are typically Ender 3 clones with filament runout, a colour display, silent steppers, and sometimes ABL. All welcome features but in the end these printers are almost the same.

As I started to make the requested Ender 3 V2 BLtouch guide this week, it became clear there is a lot of confusion over the new Creality V4 32 bit boards (for me too). Creality have actually started shipping Ender 3s with this as standard recently, and there is also a silent V...

It has been rightly suggested that I don't have much delta printer content on the channel. I have only ever featured the Monoprice Mini Delta and beyond that back when I was a teacher we built an enormous HE3D K280 delta with my STEAM group.
Since then, I have been looki...
