Lulzbot sidekick

Have you guys seen the new just announced LULZBOT SIDEKICK? If not go check it out on 3D Printing Ned’s channel. Way different than what we are use to and way way… Way cheaper. But I think they look great and numbed I just bought 4 printers in the last month but will be selling 2 or 3 of them anyway since I like the build more than the print and getting the sidekick. There are 2 models and they’re exactly the same only difference is build volume and price.


@Milicig: My employer, SynDaver, is going to release a low cost printer soon. I can’t provide details, but you may want to wait a bit before considering the sidekick.

I’m waiting a bit anyway since I just purchased around 3500 in printers last month between getting a Taz 5, a rat rig v cast IDEX and the accessories to go with it like the hemera, bondtech lgx, dyze pro and another copperhead be sue I didn’t know that the flexible filament add-on on the lgx comes with a copperhead (sort of). And then I also bought a blv mgn corexy and got burned for the first time on aliexpress so the blv ended up costing me a voron and a half. I paid 510 for 10 machine milled pieces. I thought I was getting the metal upgrade instead of printed parts and the frame. I was wrong. It was literally just 10 metal pieces. But honestly I’m not looking for low cost printers anymore. I just like the look of the new Taz ones but I’ll check out what your employer has. Low cost printers I won’t buy anymore I literly threw away this week 5 of them. 2 DaVinci a biqu b1, anycubic kosselinear and a j g Aurora magic. Just set them out on the curb. Lol

@Milicig: Currently on pre-order.
