Great 3D Printer: Additive Manufacturing Products

I ordered this 3D printer from Revain and received it the next day. The packaging was amazing. When I started assembling this guy, I heard something rattling in the processor unit. I had to see what it was. It was a plastic mount and everyone else says they have the same one. I had to break/break the warranty sticker below. SEE IMAGE. I printed out the obligatory BENCH BOAT and was amazed. SEE IMAGE. There was a strange jerk on the left side. (PORT) Found out it was a seam tear. The default seam will always print in the same spot unless you tell the SLICER otherwise, which I did BUT after very careful leveling of the base I've never looked back. My printer works non-stop as many aspects of how your object is printed are almost always related to the slicer software, in my case CURA 4.4. Just the opposite. 2 prints stuck so well I thought I would ruin the bed. PLEASE NOTE ---- MUST DO MUST DO! . Slide it almost all the way, then twist until tight. 2) THE FIRST imprint must be the LEVER CLAMP! SEE IMAGE. The extensor arm wants to push off to the left. and the thread is not centered on the gear feed. This will fix it. The printer is somewhat rough in its movements. I found and printed some anti-vibration racquet feet that fixed this! Have fun and get a second job because you will go broke if you buy good quality yarn.
