Yeah, i do not have any money, but I bought the swiss. I like the simpleness of it, I have it on one printer, might as well make it 2.

I have one daughter turning 13 on the 20th and the other 14 on the 22nd, it is a very expensive month, but dang it, the Microswiss never goes on sale!!!

I thought about the v2s, but i just could not do it over the microswiss, have you had luck with the biqu? The videos are 50/50

We’ll see, I do not like that 4mm odd sized nozzle but in talking with them at MRRF they said I can swap the nozzle / heater to the other style. I just have to have it that thing is beautiful, and pretty light.

They did say that choice was made to save a couple extra grams…I can respect that. I do also need to move to a 0.6mm nozzle because it seem the world has moved past 0.5 for some reason.

you gotta love some of the promo copy:

【Lightweight & Delicate Design】BIQU makes a breakthrough on H2 V2S Lite by giving it an transparent hollowed-out appearance. With such fretwork design, the weight of H2 V2S Lite can be as light as 175g so that the adverse effect of inertia can be declined for higher printing precision.

Dude, that’s downright fretwork. :rofl:

These are all far too enticing. I need to tamper the suggestions a little.

How about this above ground pool?

Or this “camping oven”?

Or this sweet toaster?

More great fretwork designs. It’s too much.

I hope I can figure out how to use this on my MPCNC Primo. I’ve wanted to get a laser module for a long time.

Everything at Polymaker is 30% off. It is rarely on sale.

Time to print another v1 machine?

You know i love Australia, but really we are the ass end of the world when i comes to TECH stuff. Doesn’t matter that we have one of the highest uptakes or tech in the world. We just don’t have to population to warrant getting these deals.
Throw in the exchange to the south pacific Paso and the laser module you linked to is not even on sale in Australia and I can get it from the US store at AU$115 with maybe free shipping.

As for the FIREHD 10" tablet, I just CANT get them in AUS for some reason. And it wont let me buy it from the US store and send it to Australia without using one of those shipping forwarders that give me a US address to send too. Oh and @AU$135.00 via the US store even if i was to use the forwarder.

SIGH.
Lucky Country my arse.

Right there with you. I’ve been playing a game with one of the guys from the office where I copy an image from a Vevor ad and send it to him with no context to guess what it is. The availability of some truly remarkably weird stuff at insane prices is crazy.

If it makes you feel any better, it’s worse in NZ than it is in Aus, by far. We don’t even have an Ikea…

I really want to offer you freight forwarding services, but i live on a boat and its hard enough to get my own packages delivered. (i have to use my GF, work or brothers address) but if you are desperate i can probably help you out.

The irony is that most of this stuff is made in China, which (last time I checked) is much closer to AUS than USA.

Things like aliexpress work better for you than us, right? The shipping direct from China is anywhere from 2-5 weeks here in middle of CO, USA.

I am always surprised when I see the population of Australia. 26M doesn’t seem like enough considering how often it is in pop culture, or in the forums. Add up North Carolina, Michigan, and Arizona and you’re over 26M.

All good, I massively appreciate the offer.

I have friends dotted around Aussie that I could lean on if it comes to that. I’m going to be visiting a couple of them in Sydney and then heading out to Uluru for a holiday in a few weeks, so I’m pretty tempted to try bringing a spindle and couple of VFDs back in the suitcase!

Less well than you might think. It’s closer, but I think the shipping volumes are lower so things tend to get delayed. 2-5 weeks would be right for me in Auckland, which is the biggest shipping hub for consumer goods within NZ. AliExpress shipping also seems to be more expensive and limited to NZ than it is to the US, especially for bigger items. I’ve seen people buying woodworking vices with free shipping in the US, while here it’s often more than the item itself.

We do have some local companies that basically retail questionable AliExpress stuff to the local market, but it’s usually expensive enough to be worth rolling the dice. A company several doors down from us at work does that, so being able to walk for a minute and buy a cheap ratty crimping tool for the JST connectors on the SKR Pro board was a remarkably weird experience.

3 states in America and your over the total of AUS.
