Spent all weekend assembling this Core One. It probably took 14 hours in total. 12 hours to build and 2 hours to troubleshoot issues. Broke some parts made some mistakes but I finished the build.

Core one nice choice, i bought and built one 2 months ago. And its been a rocksoild printer i also got a x1 carbon off Facebook, but the x1 feels like a cheap twin compared to Core one.

Also the machinist in me loved seeing all the machined parts as i assembled the machine.

Those planetary gears are just so beautiful!

Im kinda a opensource nut, so i went with a prusa instead of a bambu. Then a co-worker talked me into buying an x1

Honestly regret buying the carbon,

Cheap parts break all the time, and you really feel the walled garden with there ecosystem
