Has everyone died?

Which from Creality, would be an Ender-3 V3 KE

Thanks for that.

All of that functionality should be available from the GUI.

Yes an OSD with things to click at with my mouse.

I'm about to get a Ratrig Vcore 3.1 (the 300mm cube size) thanks to an unexpected bonus. I'll report back on it (much) later. It's on topic too since it has a Pi to run the RatOS preconfigured Klipper. Not the cheapest but it's a brute of a printer.

Nice ... coreXY models do appeal, as do as IDEX models. But in the end I just went for an easy to assemble bed-slinger, rather than a printer which becomes a project in itself.

I don't want to get into yet another dispute about which is best, PLA or ABS except to say that in the 5 years I've had a printer I've never felt the need to stop using PLA (which your printer will come with). It's the cheapest (<£15 a kilo), easiest to print and more than tough enough.

Times have changed but I bought a kit (I enjoy building kits and it helps to understand what's going on) for just under £100 including postage. I bought the Tronxy version of this

Another source of dispute is whether metal frames are better than plastic. My plastic frame has been admirable. Much more important is that the printer should rest on a solid, level bench/table that doesn't shake.

I have to admit I was considering the V-Minion - until the extra bonus appeared.

They are. That’s what desktop files allow.
