Yes, and no. It was originally developed as a game, was scrapped and reworked into a book series.

What are you talking about? There is no pvp and you can set your lobby to friends only or private. Nobody is invading you buddy.

Hey, just saw this post. You can ignore my other long winded reply. I think the p1s is a great choice. I didn't realize the cost was so close either.

Not sure what you mean by the material available. Are you saying the material available that you'll be able to print?

If so, I can expand on this a bit. You can print PLA, PETG, and TPU absolutely flawlessly on the p1p. Far better than I was ever able to do on any of my previous printers. And unless you are going to be making parts that are going to see exposure to a lot of heat or pressure, that really should cover most of your bases.

To print stuff like ABS, ASA, or PC you'll really want an enclosure, and that goes for just about any 3D printer you get. If you do go the route of the p1p, you can actually print yourself an enclosure for fairly cheap. Look up arc or vision enclosures. That being said though, the enclose kit to convert your p1p to a p1s is only $150 which is very competitive with any self made closure when you factor in acrylic costs.

So, my recommendation, if you think you don't really need ABS or ASA, buy the p1p. It will work great for you. If you decide down the road you want to enclose it, buy the kit directly from bambulabs or print one yourself.

So.. I just bought a p1p and it's just about the best decision I could have made when it came to this hobby. The thing just freaking works, and it works well. I don't think I have a single complaint about mine.

That being said, they just released a p1s model. This is basically the p1p but enclosed so you can print more difficult materials like ABS. It also allows you to buy a combo with the AMS system that will let you print 4 colors at once for much cheaper than if you bought them both separately.

I really wanted to go with the open source prusa printer, but honestly at the price point I just could not justify it. The p1p is just as fast if not faster. Just as reliable. And actually shipped fully featured, for cheaper than even a mk3s+ kit. It's really the no brainer option at that price point if you can get over it being closed source.

I guess I forgot Tumblr was still a thing.

Hmm the car is parked in the garage so I just kind of assumed it was the UV during driving but yea I guess it must have been the heat.
