Just out of interest why are you selling it?

 

[eldrick 65]

Never installed it, going to sell the UM2 soon.

Why are you selling the precious UM2? *Insert gollum pic*

 

[eldrick 65]

Various reasons. I want a large build area, and dual direct-drive extruders with choices of nozzles and metal hotends.

There's also the whole issue of parts prices...

Let me know what you end up getting, I'm considering a second printer.

I had a Boots Industries 2.5 on order, but cancelled the order when it became apparent they they had switched from built-in-Canada to Chinese manufacture without any full systems-integration testing. They also expect the customer to compile their own Marlin code to calibrate the machine - not what I had in mind.

I'm presently waiting for a Zeni Kinetic Origin - the delivery date keeps stretching out, but it's US made and shipped complete and tested.

Bit off topic, but in keeping with this conversation... have you considered any of the large deltas out there as a change from another cartesian? Specifically

and

how much are you selling your UM2 for, and when

 

[eldrick 65]

ChrisR - see BootsIndustries.com as mentioned above.

UM2 sale date depends on receipt of the on-order Zeni Kinetic Origin, and, like most 3D printers, the date keeps slipping.

thanks, will do :-)
