      Looking for suggestions.

      I'm thinking per-assembled, as I would love somewhat that works out of the box.

      I'm Canadian so add at least 25% on top of the price, looking for something "fairly" affordable.

      Want a heated bed and self calibrating.

      Would love to be at the 1k mark and printrbot simple falls right there but would obviously love something cheaper
      Printrbot plus looks awesome with a 10x10x10 bed but comes to about $1800 with shipping.

      Thanks guys

        I have a Robo3d R1 and it's pretty nice. $800 on amazon.

          That one actually seems pretty sweet.

          Not terribly much info on their site though.

          Is it self calibrating and does it have a heated bed?

            Yes both. It uses a version of mattercontrol with their logo and everything. It's not too bad.

              SLS is comming!! *

              *yeah, yeah, been said before, but the $8k box that just launched is the tip of the iceberg. Keep that in mind when looking for an extruder (aka, don't blow a lot of cash on one right now)

                    Hmm this one seems tempting.

                      @Sparkum Right now they just poop out filament from a heated nozzle. Sintered Laser S(something?) is when a laser goes through a pool of media and fuses it only where you want. This avoids needing supports to do overhangs & allows really good precision.
