Greetings from Portland, Oregon

I'm just getting started with 3D printing.  I began with Prusa MK3S kit, built that 3 weeks ago, upgraded it to MK4 last week.  At this point I've probably printed 5kg of PETG and 2kg of PLA.  So I guess you could call me an "almost virgin".   LOL  Now I'm aching to move on to a second build - either Voron or RatRig - something more complex and challenging than the Prusa builds. 

I am a woodworker and precision machinist at heart, and write technical books, some of which are published on Amazon.  I have a YouTube channel dedicated to sharing my knowledge about European woodworking equipment and machinist activities as well as tutorials on the use of Fusion 360 in some off-the-path applications.  My shop projects and equipment build logs are documented here.  If you want to know more, hop over to my web site.

I will be seeking advice here as I move into more complex DYI builds.  Thanks in advance for helping out.

Hi David. Welcome aboard. Along with Voron and RatRig, there is also another high end build project called VzBot you may be interested in. 

Cheers

Welcome to the forum!

I did about the same with my Prusa Mini build. About the time I finished it up I started looking seriously at the Vorons. "I pulled this off and it wasn't so hard. Maybe I can successfully build a Voron." And here I am.
