Same, am I still going to buy one after others have been the guinea pigs to work out bugs? Yes, but that’s still a chunk of change.
I think I saw that the add-on nozzles end up being on the cheaper end though. Not sure what my plans are for those yet.
I'll pick up a core L + INDX at the black Friday sale (assuming it's discounted, and the reviews are positive)
It's a lot up front and a long wait, but hopefully the bugs will be worked out and it'll be a solid, long term printer.
My plan exactly. I'm not buying anything at that price until the reviews are in. I need what indx represents in my head, but I'm waiting for indications that my headcanon matches reality, both in terms of functionality, ease of use, and quality.
I will definitely be thinking about it, but I think the benefit is too small for me, especially at those prices...
For real. The cost for 4 toolheads almost makes it not worth getting in light of the cost of 8.
I'd still get it if I had the money, though.
There was discussion about this on “the other site*” when the founder’s kits were released. The basic answer ended up being something like “since the nozzles heads are dumb, you’re still getting the same amount of smart (more expensive) components so there isn’t a lot of cost to save”.
*- I still lurk a few communities, but don’t interact. Fuck Spez.
