What's the advantage of resin printing over FDM?

I have both. Resin has better resolution and for my stuff, prints much faster than filament. One model took 36 hours on an Elegoo Centauri Carbon and 10 hours on a Saturn Ultra 4. I also find resin a lot simpler to maintain. WIth filament it seems I'm always fixing extruder jams and have to watch th

Bambu Lab 3D printers: Never again - Jeff Geerling

Like what? In my experience the only one with similar print quality and reliability are the Prusa machines. They are great, but cost significantly more than Bambu. Elegoo CC? Nope Snapmaker U1? Maybe Any creality? Hell no.

Anyone getting anxiety from all the problems being reported?

Remember that people who have no issues don't post. What you're seeing is a bias in data, people who have no issues have no reason to post, therefore you're mostly only seeing people with issues that need resolved. People LOVE to use the internet to complain. I've had 0 printing issues with my Centa

3D Printer manufacturer Flashforge openly threatens to report their customers to authorities for printing weapon components

I've been enjoying my Elegoo Centauri Carbon. Calibrating the slicer for the filaments and nozzles is tedious (but not hard), but you have to do it for every printer that doesn't have exquisite presets just dialed dead nuts in. There is a successor coming out that has a filament switcher. I don't re

Minilab creations: What 3D printer are you using?

I’m rocking an Elegoo Centauri Carbon for this project. The quality is solid and very consistent. I’ve printed a 10” rack mount for an Ikea Kallax shelf, and the 256mm bed is perfect since the 1U brackets fit in one go without needing any split parts. Here’s how the setup looks right now! Just waiti

iron lung bucket 3d print help

The file you need to be fully prepared is a .gcode file. These files are printer and filament specific and contain the movement data the printer needs to make the part. You need to find out the model of the 3d printer, and its bed volume. If you have this you can download a slicer software. Some of

Elegoo centauri Carbon 2

I just did my first print on it last night with PETG, a b/w hueforge image. Turned out AMAZING. I have had no real deal breaking issues myself. The only thing I can say is that there is a known bug in the current firmware for binding/connecting it to wifi for remote viewing and control in both web a

Still coming!

Or, and I know this is hard to grasp, maybe some people are just wise enough to notice the constant lack of communication and blatant anti-consumer practices they have been exhibiting. I don't see many people stating the CC1 isn't a great printer for the price, the "anger" comes from the fact that t

Dear Elegoo, You suck! Love all Centauri Carbon owners worldwide!

I agree that none of these offers are very lucrative. I can take an $80 discount on a product that won't even be available by the time I have to make the decision and has no announced price. No thanks. I'm not trusting a promise of a future release of the CC2. They've already shown their promises ar
