Mostly great prints now though.
Upgrades:
New feet.
New offset spool holder.
Smart LCD XXL Display (Love it!)
Soon upgrading to E3D V6 for shit's & giggles.
(Actually broke wire to ceramic heater on latest print.
Keep your wires tight boys & girls)
Way too many 'want to prints' & not enough time.
Have become new best friend to many people.

I was a kickstarter back for the R2 unit, to which it is my first unit and didn't know what I was getting myself into. My first thought was to print handy things for my house, truck and motorcycles, but then I very quickly realized that my designing skills are severely lacking!!

I've done a few toys prints (groots, turtles) and a really cool transformer print for my nephew. But I have to say the FB group has been very insightful...

Hi!

I've been modeling stuff in 3D software for a while now and I got to the point where I want to bring them to life... and for that I most definitely need a 3D printer.

After long considerations ( and still fighting over what I actually want with what I actually need... and costs... ), I got to the conclusion that the best printer for my needs it will be a ROBO3D R2 (based on the specs that were...

Just wanted to introduce myself to the forums.

My name is Kris and I just purchased my first 3D Printer over the
holidays. I've been wanting one for years, and I think finally they are
at a decent price these days to jump in.

Just waiting on delivery of my unit but have been reading the forum
and watching as many YouTube vids as I can in preparation.

I'm hoping to tackle a few of the simple upgrades and some small
prints from Thingiverse to get me started.

I've got both...

As I am writing this, it has been around a whole month since i received my printer. And this is my short story about it..

Way before I was trying to decide on what printer to settle, out of multiple reasons, the ones standing out were the low price for its huge print volume, its ability to print any filament, its heated bed and its really good community (hi ). I had already decided that I would buy a Robo3D while it was still in its early founding (Patreon (?)). I have...

My experience so far has been a shaky start, but things seem to be smoothing out, and I have very high hopes for the future.

I bought my Robo through the U.S. Best Buy. First impressions were good, it looks very complete, if not a little... don't...

Hello from a soon-to-be robo-printer-er in Hamilton, Ontario!

My printer arrived yesterday - spent the day trying not to think about it at work. Got home, opened it up and somehow managed not to cry. Seems the tool container came apart, letting things bounce around enough to destroy the heatbed.

Anyway, sent off an email, heard back and things should be soon set aright. Can hardly...
