Status on Lowrider 4

I think 300, you’ve got the entire machine for still under 800 with the table build and emt

Also to add, you have to account for issues with prints and it will take one printer 2.5 days to make one set, that’s a lot of personal time removing the parts then shipping it and inspection

When was the last price adjustment on the LR3? You may not be cutting YZ, but you’re printing them, and they’re better.

Inflation is a thing. I’d suggest 10% more than the LR3 kit. Maybe $277.99 with an included Jackpot box!

Still seems like a really good deal.

Oh - and as suggested,

A premium filament option (which like Porsche, should have more margin built in :grinning:)

A “Large Parts” option for those with smaller print beds.

The TPU bristles are a good idea for a separate item. Maybe in a short and long version (or maybe just sell a “set”).

They fit on 200x200, are there beds smaller?

The Premium printed parts sets are coming but they are a while out. Still have testing and sourcing to do.

I was just responding to this comment.

It’s a good point that I’m not sure there will be many that would select it, but not want a full set.

Pretty sure an A1 Mini is like 180x180

RatRig Minion is 180 x 180 too. Just don’t know how many V1E enthusiasts are limited by the mini printers.

Yeah not worth it for me to add options to be each part. If you have a tiny printer buy the full kit. best that the same printer prints all the parts so they fit right.

Very good point. Especially after all the skew conversations.

The reason my lr4 will not be running tonight

Left and right are my girls. Center are friends!

Beautiful daughters. Homecoming?

From the perspective of someone who looked at the LR3 kit before they bought a 3d Printer - I didn’t blink at 264 and 240 is a steal. For a 4x8 cnc kit with ALL the hardware under 800 is a deal that no one can even get close to right now, so you probably could go to 280-300. If you plan on offering fancy materials in the future, maybe 280 to leave some incentive to sell the higher end kits depending on how those are priced out. I price out weird stuff like this for a living (corp finance) and usually its just done on margin.

Nice! Liked, downloaded and maked/commented…

Nice integrated zipties like Jamie’s very cool. Consider including width dimension(s) in pics/details.

For anyone still thinking about skew correction for the P1 Series printer, it is not support. That is skew correction for ANY skew, not just XY. I tried 3 times to correct it use M1005 and it doesn’t take it. I found this reddit post with a message from Bambu Lab saying it is not possible.

EDIT: It was pointed out to me that the reddit post also says the next release of P1 firmware will include skew correction, granted it doesn’t say for what axis.

https://www.reddit.com/r/BambuLab/comments/1ftpcd0/p1_printers_dont_support_skew_correction/

And this is the exact reason I decided to build my own printer instead of going Bambu.

It’s a hard price to beat, but I didn’t want to get stuck with something I couldn’t fix/upgrade if something went wrong

Still waiting for you to pick up an SV08 and tell me how it is :rofl:

I liked, downloaded, shared make, commented, and will add star rating as soon as Printables.com allows it. I’m again having the same issue I had earlier with the main LR4 listing. There I did eventually get away to add a rating.

UPDATE: I had already downloaded it, but I downloaded it again, and now it lets me rate. I guess somehow my first download didn’t “take.”
