I think that if you’re even a little bit involved with 3D printing, there’s no way around some of the manufacturers. In the past, Creality and Prusa were clearly the sole top dogs, but they are no longer alone there. Thereis a lot to say aboutthe P1S and Bambu Lab ,so let’s start right away and put some more pressure on them [...]
After a teaser campaign lasting almost two weeks, there is finally concrete information about Bambu Lab’s new 3D printer, the A1 mini, today. The speculations have come to an end, but probably not quite with the expected result for many. As the name suggests, it’s a small, completely new model and not a larger version of the already [...]
I have changed the title a bit, because we don’t want to provoke clickbait. But the meaning will make itself clear in the further course of the test report, one way or another. There will be a happy ending! If you want to get started with 3D printing, there is something really interesting to read today. But let’s start at the [...]
The detailed test today is almost a little nostalgic for me, because many years ago the hobby of 3D printing began for me with a Creality Ender-3, the first model without any other additions behind the name. And I wasn’t alone in that; to this day, this model is probably one of the best-selling 3D printers in the world. Creality would [...]
Today there is once again an excursion into my other hobby away from the hardware. It’s about a very special 3D printer, a project that has kept me busy over several weekends. I am talking about a Voronto be more precise a Voron Trident! Why I chose a 3D printer from a manufacturer that isn’t one at all and for a model that you [...]
Today follows the last part of this little hobby project, but the end comes with a bang (metaphorically): Ryzen 7, 16GB RAM and a proud 32TB of storage. I had already teased the slightly extended version of the normal NAS, now it can finally show what it can do! The title already gave it away, for this system, which can also be used as a server [...]
We seamlessly follow up on the last article about my 3D-printed NAS, then today it’s all about commissioning and also finally performance testing. If you haven’t read the last article yet, you should definitely catch up on it. In this one, it does get very software-heavy. Preparations As already announced, I decided to use [...]
A little over a year ago, I presented an ITX gaming system here whose case came entirely from the 3D printer. Since then there were from me now and then smaller topics in this direction, today I present you my next big project with a small footprint. However, instead of a gaming PC for your own leisure time, it becomes rather useful and practical [...]
What follows is a solution to a mix of a homegrown problem, weekend project, and experimentation. I've summarized the results and how to get there in this article, in case anyone else falls right into that niche. But even if not, it should still be interesting for the rest. Problem Any good problem solving should start with an analysis and [...]

Quite a while ago, on the occasion of my 3D printer beginner guide, I also gave a little buying advice with various recommendable models. I still consider the machines from Prusa Research to be the best that an ambitious hobby plastic melter can buy. Print quality, support, and most importantly reliability are outstanding…at a price. But [...]
