Creality’s new Ender 3 printer is AMAZING! Here is a skeleton done with the stock .4mm nozzle (our previous Prusa prints were done with a .25mm nozzle.) This is straight off the bed, no cleanup. .4 nozzle, .1 layer height, Hatchbox gray at 185 temp. 53 minutes to print. We haven’t even dialed the slicer profile in yet! You can get this amazing printer for $239 from Amazon (affiliate link below) or as low as $190 direct from China. We are working on a video review of this machine complete with build tips that will be posted soon.<\/p>\n
