With the k1, Bambu labs, and prusa xl all coming out I’m really starting to look at my 3 year old SK-GO as “slow”. Do you think it’s worth waiting for awhile and seeing if the competition heats up more or should I just pull the trigger on one of the current high speed machines

The tornado was my first printer back when it first came out in 2017! The second z screw made a HUGE difference on my machine, same with adding braces to the z and switching to kilpper so I could run input shaping (no matter what though I was always limited by the heavy glass bed). I ended up buying the SK-GO because I tightened the bed leveling knob too much and shattered the bed lol.

There's a lot of info on moving to a duet3d board, I did that, and I found a tiny direct drive extruder. Printing the braces was the very first thing I did, since my joke is the first thing you 3d print is more parts for your 3d printer. :P
