Bringing new 3d-printer online is always a length process.
I am considering selling it, buying another printer, modifying it to match exactly what I already have and skip the setup.
On paper the differences are minimal:
- Duet 3 SBC vs. Duet 2
- 3-point bed vs. classic single axis bed
- identical hotends
- larger frame
Yeah ... that firmware is so different that it feels like those machines have nothing in common. Till now I tried treating it like it would be a copy of the other printer in larger but that failed misserably.
Right now there are two options on the market for sale:
1.) 300x300 mm size -> not identical to the existing 200x300 which disqualifies it
2.) 4x wrong extruder, could be the wrong heatbed (low temperature variant). Unreasonable expensive factoring in the changes/upgrades (2'500€).
Number 2 is still worth watching. If it sells near the asking price the printer I own is far more worth than I thought it would be.
