Capital d capital i, its deionised

Then you're using yours wrong

Leftover fries heated in an airfryer are still good

AFAIK there's only FreeCAD, but it is very different to work with so be prepared to relearn a lot of workflows.

I mostly print large functional parts, so FDM is the best solution for that, and I just happen to also use it for printing minis because I already have it. I don't have work space free for resin printing too, with all the extras it needs for handling and curing.

ASA i have, because i have en enclosed printer with filter...but i dont have space for handling resin or vapour smoothing (like I said)

So far they've just used fine-point acrylic markers directly on the PLA, but it doesn't quite cover properly. I'll try the plastic primer 👍

I really don't want to deal with resin, I don't have room for a proper safe workstation for it.

I think ASA with acetone vapour will smooth out too much detail, which is already limited. The layer-lines aren't really an issue either, i print at 0.08mm thickness (it takes forever to print these...)

Yeah it's absolutely insane...I searched for an app just yesterday by exact name, and it still didn't crack the top 20 reaults

We need to figure out how to get it higher up on the Play Store's search results rather than it being impossible to discover at something like #40 on that list

You pay...no way around that. Google has rigged the search in the store, you will never get a good search location unless you pay.

It's not just smaller, it also has limitations in materials it can print because it's not an enclosed printer. The core one can print ABS/ASA much more reliably, PC, Nylon and other fancy stuff the A1 just can't. Their motion systems are also completely different as the core one uses coreXY and the A1 is coreXZ (aka. bedslinger).

A decent bedslinger is easy to come by these days, if that's all you need there are many others to go with, e.g. Sovol which is using open source klipper.

They're not comparable printers though, you should be comparing the Prusa core one to the Bambu P1-series. The Bambu P1-series is still less than half of the prusa core one of course.
