Useful, thanks for this Joe, mine arrives tomorrow that is if I don't break ups's site by clicking refresh too often. CAN'T WAIT!

I'm loving my MK3, Josef. I have three other printers but the Prusa is now my go-to for most jobs. (Sorry to those of you who are still waiting.)

[HoffmanEngineering]

These features are incredible! Leaps and bounds ahead.

Super funkce, jsem rád že se technologií tisku snížíte porát vylepsovat. Už se těším na další vylepšení :)

Great video. I love your sense of humour Jo. The blackout was hilarious.
A couple of years ago, I did blackout my house, the main feed cable blew itself apart under ground.

I finally ordered my MK3!

Can't wait. I'm done fiddling with the inferior clones.

[BiigDaddyDellta]

Wow, the true mark of a proffessional. My benchy never turned out like that one.

Going to get one I think, although I hope there is going to be a dual nozzle upgrade at some point, I'm torn between the Ultimaker 3, this Prusa and the BCN3D. Having a second dedicated nozzle for dissoluble supports is a must, but other than that, I've heard nothing but extremely good reviews on the Prusa.

Where can I get that fan-like extruder movement indicator that you have in the video?

[androidcg]

Still need to wait for my prepordered MK3 to be shipped to me. Can't wait any more! ;-)

Josef, the black looking bosch-profiles is it possible to order them seperately, or will they be shipped with the mk2, 5s-upgrade? They look (and probably are) way more stable compared to the threaded rods. Hope you will see this comment !

Last night my printer ran out of filament for the first time, it just kept on printing with nothing coming out. Filament sensor is turned on in the menu. Tried unloading filament, nothing came out, tried loading filament, can't get it in. So tonight after work have to look at how to clear this and run a test like you've shown here to see if something is wrong with my sensor.

does the prusa mini have the same features

[scifimodelshop]

I love your videos, to the point and shows the content I am looking for, I been really enjoying my new printer making up a Blockade Runner. first time printing out large print jobs so I wanted to look at something that would show how filament sensor works thank you

[ikkendritt]

Love the stuff!
But it dont give you anything if some of the test fails.
Example my problem is that it dose not see when the filament is empty. It just continue to print with nothing. But it do detect when i use the autoload new filament.

The mini have all of thouse features or not?

[SuperMarenga]

When i put my hand for force a crashed... instead extruder move to home position, goes to the full right and keep printing outside oringinal place...

Will there ever be a delta prusa printer?

[austindale]

Yeah, mine doesn't do that. How do I fix this. all setting are turned on.

[wayneuk]

will there be a bigger bed in future its the only reason i dont have one of your machines as yet
