    This will be cheaper than any voron 2.4 kit + 3D printed parts and also fully assembled? Sounds great!

      Looks like they’re quoting a one hour build. Having built a 2.4, let me assure you a Voron build is way over one hour. I haven’t dug through the BOM, but this seems like a pretty solid price point. It also gets some things right that the bamboo didn’t implement (like quad z motors should the need for them arise).

      Voron is not designed to be cheap. So I guess they have done quite a bit of cost optimization in the design.

      We don’t know yet if these optimizations are cutting any big corners, but I guess yes.

      For example: at this price point you will likely not get a thick aluminum build plate with AC heater, you will not get a high quality hotend, etc…
