Snapmaker U1

[kamxam]

Saw this mentioned in an article about Kickstarter and pre-ordered one from their store since i missed the Kickstarter campaign by a few days.. Kickstarter is done now but can be pre-ordered on their store albeit at a smaller discount atm. From what I've read, the early reviews are pretty positive about it.

So far... I bought a $1000 printer to print test prints

Wife is a teacher and is loving the test prints as behavioral treats....
Coworker printed 2 on Bambu Labs P2S and had same 50ish g for 2 but had 4x the waste at 208g!!!!

I'm thinking on getting a U1 before the price jumps in about 12 days.
Heard YT'bers love it and there's very little waste.
Plus you can thin layers to fake other colors.

I really like mine has been printing very well for the last few weeks since I got it. However now it's giving me issues and I can't get things to stick. Yes I know how to clean the build plate I know how to level etc this is not my first printer. My Elegoo Centauri carbon still prints great as it is right next to my U1 that is failing to print but the Centauri carbon is spitting them out

U1 failing

There's a plate YT'ers are recommending, Cryo plate or something that helps with prints sticking to the bed.
I'm about to place an order be fore the cutoff date.
I want to print a replacement for the rubber on my Logitech 604 mice. Just need to decide which filaments get that have just about the right enough flex to snap around the mouse shell.
Not sure if I want to get the U1 cover or do the bin hack.........

Nice, looks like the total height might be just 75 to 76 cm?
I'm planning on having it sit on the desk underneath my bunk bed.
