I’m looking into getting a new printer, and I’m interested in building my own. I know Voron 2.4 and Trident are the obvious ones to look at. But I can’t help but notice they are both 3+ year old printers. Considering how much the industry has grown in the last few years, it got second guessing if Voron is still the way to go.

How do Voron printers compare to the current state of the art (Prusa CoreOne+, Bambu P2 series, Qidi Plus 4, etc.)? Are there mods that are essential to improving them? Are there other DIY printers I should look at?

Thanks!

    I would argue that Vorons are more capable than say a Baubu, but I digress.

    Depends on the Bambu and what capability you’re after, doesn’t it?

    I know Bambu is evil, but I have to admit the H2C with its nozzle-changer is sexy. Give it a couple of AMSs and you get 7 materials with no purging. That’s a capability I don’t think a Voron has (though please, correct me if I’m wrong).
