I like having multiple m2's that are setup exactly the same. This way any file i have can be loaded i to any printer that is free. The only non mg printer that has caught my eye lately is the raise3d

It appears to be a problem with that specific hot end because I havent had the problem persist since I changed hot ends. I guess I'll have to replace the thermistor. not a huge deal, but I dont think I've used that hot end very much so thats a little frustrating.

Anyway, you're probably right JSC, I'll leave discussion of other print brands out of this. More to your point Innkeeper, I would actually like to have a 2nd M2 if for nothing else than I already have a great system down with it and lots of spare parts, not to mention I can expect nearly the same prints from it so if I needed to print identical parts I could and the customer wouldnt notice.

haha same for me Jim, I have a call into them to find out when they will actually be available retail. The only thing that makes me wary is that they arent proven, and theres no real world usage to speak for it. That was what sold me on the makergear, was that it was highly reviewed and could be modified.
