Thinking about getting my first printer to print some organization stuff around the house, some nerf parts, as well as some small toys and fidget for friends/kids. The Bambu Lab A1 seems to be notable for being beginner friendly without a lot of fiddling.
Read recently about the lawsuit and I’m wondering if I should wait until that’s resolved before pulling the trigger. I’m worried that some outcome there will eliminate important features or worst case make it obsolete entirely. Any thoughts?
With bambu Lab, however, you are supporting a Chinese closed source manufacturer that makes use of the open source community and has no development costs. This only supports the fact that open source alternatives have to become closed source in the long term and thus destroys the market in the long term. But greed is good, right?
You make a good point, and it’s really the reason I have and like Prusa printers. But I do look with some envy at the bang for the buck you get with Bambu
