The Ender 3 V2 Neo is at an even lower price now. This is the upgraded version of the really popular Ender 3 v2.
You have auto level now with all metal extruder as well. A bit faster printer than the earlier one as well.
Might be worth considering the Grade A option if your budget is a bit tight. Looks like a decent value on that too.

Grade A
  • Unit will be in excellent condition with very light signs of usage on the item, may have very light scratches/marks/blemishes on the item
  • If applicable - Screens will not have any missing/stuck/dead/bright pixels

  • CR Touch Auto-leveling
  • Flexible, magnetic-build plate
  • Stronger yellow springs
  • New UI with Preview

    Worth mentioning you can get an Ender 3 S1 (almost the same printer but with a MUCH better direct drive extruder) for £269 from Creality UK. Personally I'd spend the extra for the better machine. The bowden extruder + base hotend on the E3v2 Neo is a 5-6 year old design and things have moved forward a LOT since then.

    The Ender 3 series (in my opinion) is the best way to get into 3D printing. It does require learning how it all works. It's not just plug and play, but knowing how it all works is important for maintenance and fine tuning to get the best out of it. It's inexpensive. Parts are cheap. Theres a MASSIVE online community for it and loads and loads of mods you can print to make them even better. However, see my other post for some further advice.

    I’d recommend getting the sovol sv06. I have 2 of these machines. After the conversion rate I paid £217

    So much better than then ender 3 I had, Within the hour of owning one I bought another to replace my ender

    Yeah you may get the warped bed but with a custom firmware this will help mitigate it

    I’m considering getting into printing. As a hobby, nothing serious.

    I’ll be looking to print terrain for mini war gaming, things like that. Have you tried anything like that on what you have?

    Are there printers around this price range of printing metal objects?

    There are a lot of printers coming out at the moment in all different price ranges and features I would not be surprised if in a year I have 2 new printers to replace the ones I have.
    From the new Creality that is a total rip of of the bambu labs one at half the price to the solvo 6 which is packed with features and good price, to extra large ones like the elegoo Neptune max.
    Give it 6 months and the pricing will drop on some (older) models and reviews will be in to see if the ones being pushed out at the moment are any good.
    I may not buy Creality (I do have a CR10 s which is at least 4 years old with no problems) anymore as they have jaded themselves in my view with pricing, incremental improvement, dodgy ones that did not do as claimed and were obviously pushed out before testing and general lack of conscience.
    Machines I would like and might get .
    Neptune 3 max for size, solvo 6 for cost and features, and hopefully a new Bambu X1 carbon or newer model if the bring it out (hopefully at a better price then they are at the moment) for speed and multi-materials (there are teething issues it seems which is why I would maybe hold out for a X2 version). Creality even stole the naming on their new machine calling it a "K1". and the webpage for it was a complete rip off of the Bambu labs webpage.

    K1 Max for me I think. Rumour over on Reddit that Creality have a multi-material addon coming.

    This does not look like a lighthouse at first glance.

    I'm thinking of getting a 3D printing to make model railway parts and rolling stock that can't be brought from shops. Is this printer able to produce detail on parts like rivets and make steps that attach to locos or would a resin printer be better. I'm torn between the two types of 3D printers. The resin one looks more complicated with the cleaning etc. Can anyone recommend a decent printer with a budget up to £450

    I've had both, the resin printer is far more detailed and is mostly plug and play. It's not that messy but you will need ventilation if you don't have a spare room. It's the IPA washing that stinks btw. The print bed is also smaller.
    I prefer the resin over the PLA but things have probably moved on since I got my first PLA 5 years ago.
    I have an Anycubic resin printer atm. I'll post a link to one of my first prints on the machine with no real calibration only initial setup soon.

    How strong is the plastic once printed?
    CyDoNiA's avatar

    Pretty strong although it depends what filament you use. PLA and PETG are about the same although this can vary greatly depending on some colours or finishes like silk, matte. I have some silverand gold and it's terriblefor strength. For strength PLA+ is what you want as it's about 25% stronger.

    It does depend on the infill (whether a model is hollow and by how much).

    Beyond PLA+ there's ABS but it's horrible to print as it causes toxic fumes and needs very high temperatures. (edited)
