Great entry-level printer

I already have several 3D printers, but the price of the Elegoo Neptune 2 and what I could see in the photos convinced me to try it. and I immediately started collecting it. Completely assembled in an hour and a half, including the lunch break. The assembly instructions were very easy and the only thing I missed was the two lock washers dangling in the bolt bag. I had to go back and find out where they went. Luckily they were used on the two screws holding the PSU in place so I didn't have to do much disassembly. you collect it On my car, the eccentric nuts on the wheels had to be adjusted. The bed was pretty wobbly, but adjusting the eccentric nuts took care of that. Same goes for the X and Y wheels. I adjusted them when I built the car so everything was easy to reach. The Z-axis lead screw nut was also loosened, but I think that's intentional so it can adjust to machine variations. Once this is all assembled you will need to move the Z axis all the way down and then tighten the screws on the lead screw nut so it is properly positioned for your printer. After everything was assembled and aligned, I printed the supplied model. to the SD card, which took just over an hour. The model came out perfect. I also printed a few more test patterns and they all came out great. The print quality of this machine is impressive, especially considering the price. Everything is standard and universal, so if you want to upgrade something, you can install most optional accessories. So far I'm very impressed with this printer, apart from the fact that it has a slightly smaller print area than my other printers. , print quality is as good as my others for a fraction of the cost. I haven't had this in a long time, so I can't say how it performs after hundreds of hours of typing, but I don't know if I see anything as a potential weakness. If you're looking for a first printer, this is a great option at a really great price. You can't go wrong with this purchase.
