Hi Serge, What is the expected date to start shipping smartcore alu kits ordered on blackfriday?by Yoko - Smart_Rap
Quotesmartfriendz The smartrapcore alu got a heated bed by default now .. all current kits and future one will have it. It's not really needed foor PLA but still give a better experience and it's really a must have for other plastics, so we made it standard. LCD 2004 too and we just switched to all 8mm rods . Great news does these updates are applied to the kits ordered on black friday or not?by Yoko - Smart_Rap

I just bought the kit today smartcore alu as it is black friday i got it with 274 euro and i will buy heated bed, filament and power supplyby Yoko - Smart_Rap
I am willing to get smartrapcore alu from smartfriendz is there any other kits that i can get? I can't source parts localy nor from internet because it will cost much more than getting a kit (3d printers are 0% custom ) will parts will be subjected to 20% custams and 10% taxby Yoko - CoreXY Machines

hi all, Is smart core good printer to start with for a newbie to 3d printers (i have a very good technical background) is it better to get a heated bed to the kit and a power supply of course (i most probably will print with PLA only)by Yoko - Smart_Rap
QuoteJ-Max Hi, Well, most of the kits uses cheap chinese parts anyways, even the BQ. These days most of the things comes from china. I believe you can order stuff from Aliexpress.com if you like. That's what we do. You have good and bad from china, but you can source good parts from there too.

QuoteJ-Max What do you mean with "changing filaments" ? Any printer should be able to change filament. On most of them this is easy, you cand do it within a minute or so. ++JM in prusa kit you can change filament will printing then continue after that (use moe than 1 filament in the same print)by Yoko - Prusa i3 and variants
QuoteJ-Max Hi guys, Folger's kits are cheap, in the wrong way. Definitely. The SmartRapCore is obviously a CoreXY printer, and that's a good point. Be aware it uses 6mm rods, so it won't be able to handle a lot on the printehead. Please consider the WanHao Duplicator I3, but it's not exaclty a kit. There's a lot of good points with it, and it's under $400. As I used to say, there's no perfectby Yoko - Prusa i3 and variants
If i add this one what will be the choiceby Yoko - Prusa i3 and variants
QuoteSlaghton I've only had my folgertech printer for about 2-3 weeks but so far its been pretty decent. I still have a little tweaking left because I was a complete noob to this but my prints are getting close to perfect. could you please upload a few prints from your printer?by Yoko - Prusa i3 and variants
Hi all, I want to get a good kit for sub $500 including shipping to Egypt as i have a tight budget and i still will pay for customs and tax NB it will be my first 3d printer (technical knowldge will not be an issue as i am an electrical engineer) I am now between 3 kits as following Folgertech i3 2020 It's main advantage for me that it is frame and support Price including lcd and shipping $380by Yoko - Prusa i3 and variants
