As with all repraps, this is a hobbyist/enthusiast item. Requires calibration if you want quality prints. You're on your own if something breaks, but everything is replaceable.

--Do you include packaging: No packaging

--Reason for selling: Haven't really used it much. Don't have the time and apart from knick-knacks (batarangs) haven't really been making use of it. Sold with leftover 3mm PLA.
--Price: R6,000
--Negotiable: No
--Location: Cape Town
--Shipping or collection: Collection only

Used Repetier-host as the printing software. It allows manual control during a print, to change extruder or heatbed temperature, adjust the height of the nozzle, or change the speed of the printer or the amount of plastic being extruded. Printrun works fine but doesnt have the manual features. Helps with adjusting the first layer to get really good adhesion.

Used slic3r to convert 3d files into gcode (which is what the printer understands).
