Artillery Sidewinder X1

I just wish that these ribbon cable connection points were more reliable. That's the only thing letting it down, and the price is also one of the more...

I'm thinking of upgrading to a mk3s+ because my sidewinder X1 sometimes randomly stops mid print. I've heard great things about the mk3 but it's always nice to hear from personal experience, especially when planning to spend a pretty hefty amount of money. So I want to ask, how many of you have had reliability issues with (long) prints and if so, how many times do the issues come up and how hard are they to fix? Thanks in advance :).

pros: It looks nice, robust frame, direct drive extruder, easy to navigate UI. cons: spool holder - just a bad design, can compensate by printing rollers, but still... warped bed - I worked around the low spot in the middle of the bed (~0.008" / 0.2mm) by placing models at the edges or using a raft ...

Try Artillery Sidewinder. Direct drive extruder, Volcano hotend, AC heated bed, dual z screw, silent steppers and fans, large size, and is better than most of the printers other people listed. With some small upgrades it can even rival the Prusa.

Bought this as another printer to go along with my Ender 3 Pro. It was freaking awesome for the first week, until the what I can only surmise was the sensor going out on the X-axis. I finished up a print and then the X-axis went into the shakes and would not move. Sent an email to the tech people, t...

* I don't have any extenuating circumstances that would restrict me from using machines. I have been looking at a few printers and the Artillery Sidewinder X1 caught my eye. The print size allows for a lot of versatility.

Pros: Big print volume Dual z axis Direct drive for flexible filaments LED light to illuminate printer Pre installed setting to more easily level printer Cons: Need to disconnect the LED lights to install BLTouch or buy a motherboard upgrade Thermistor really bad. Mine blew on the first day Plastic ...

I would like to use it for cosplay props like weapons and armor. I started thinking of getting a printer because i saw the 100$ ender 3 pro deal at microcenter but the coupons for it seem gone now... i hear its not so bad to get a small printer and print in parts? Otherwise i heard the cr10s is good for cosplay but the artillery sidewinder x1 seems to be recommended more here.

Set it up and started printing. Good printer. Then the tip of the touch probe broke. There are no parts replacement probe parts available for the x2 unless you buy from china so you are dependent on the seller. We'll see if seller sends a new probe. I ordered a bltouch to replace it but it's not a d...

My current one is Artillery Sidewinder X1 and it works very well. I chose it for its large build volume, volcano hotend, and direct drive and so far it is doing well for me.
