3D Print & Electricity Cost Calculators Discussion

After an unlucky transportation attempt, all I could do was perform a final autopsy on the iconic machine that made me believe in #3Dprinting. Bye-bye, my friend. It was a great journey! 🫡 My original Prusa i3 MK2.5S retired, but definitely not forgotten. https://3dwithus.com/original-prusa-i3-mk2-mk25s-upgrade

I've always been curious about one question: Does spending more money on a 3D printer actually make a big difference? Many beginners struggle with the same decision: Should I buy an affordable printer first and learn along the way, or save money and get a higher-end machine from the beginning? So I decided to do a simple comparison. I printed the same model using: The same PLA filament The same 0.4mm nozzle The same 0.2mm layer height Similar speed settings The only difference was the printe

Creality’s 3D scanner lineup is interesting. From the tiny new Pika to the standalone Sermoon P1 and more. Still waiting for Pika to arrive. Here is the first look: https://3dwithus.com/creality-new-3d-scanners

TPM3D announced that it has reached a significant milestone with the industrial-scale integration of selective laser sintering (SLS) and high-performance PEBA elastomers for footwear manufacturing. https://www.3dnatives.com/en/tpm3d-sls-peba-footwear-18052026/#! Durability and long-term mechanical degradation have remained significant challenges for 3D-printed midsoles in high-performance sports applications. TPM3D says it has worked to address this “durability gap” through rigorous engineering

I recently had a closer look at the new Elegoo Centauri 2 Combo. 📹 https://youtu.be/9a95vRu0310 ✍ https://3dwithus.com/elegoo-centauri-2-combo-overview This is an overview rather than a full hands-on review, focusing on the design, setup, CANVAS multi-colour system, and the main differences compared with the Centauri Carbon 2.
