Prusa Mini (Patreon)

I found time to assemble the Prusa Mini that I received before Christmas. It took about 30-45 minutes to assemble. The calibration worked amazingly well. I was able to adjust the Z offset for the autolevel with ease and it’s been consistent since. The print quality is quite good. On par with my best Ender 3’s.

The build area is smaller but so far it hasn’t limited me. The biggest surprise is how quiet it is. The fans and steppers are very quiet and the fans shutoff after the hotend cools down. The power supply is a contained brick type so no noisy fan there either.

It has a separate spool holder stand which works well but makes it more difficult to move it around.

I’m still testing it and using the latest Prusaslicer 2.3+. They work really well together.

I’ll have a video on this soon but wanted to give you guys an update. I’m late to the Prusa Mini world and I’m still sorting out if it’s worth twice the price of an Ender 3 and which one is better for beginners.
