    Aaaaaaaahrg! Guess who recently bought an MK4S and thought “Wish it was a CoreXY, though”?

    Edit:

    transform your MK4S fully into the CORE One without a single compromise. We are aiming for a release date in March 2025 with the projected price of 449 USD (VAT excl.) / 489 EUR (VAT incl.).

    Well, at least there is that…

      I saw the video this morning before work. I’m in the same boat as you. Bought a MK4s about 2 months ago. Very happy with it, but I want that CORE One.

      The product page says it won’t ship until Jan ‘25, so I’m just gonna be patient and wait for stock to arrive at PrintedSolid in the US. Hopefully they’ll have some by summer. If I still want it that badly I’ll get it. Maybe the urge will pass and I’ll be content with my MK4s.

        Just read that as well, but that’s $500 on top plus $300 I “wasted” on the enclosure for the MK4S.

          My enclosure has the MMU3 and all 5 spools crammed in there, very space efficient

          I’m also gonna cram the filter in there when I get around to it.

          This new one can’t seem to support more than a single spool on the side tho

          Seems like it’d be better for you to sell your enclosed MK4S and just buy this one as a kit

              I haven’t tried, but it sounds like it’s hard to sell used printers. Maybe it’d be easier to sell the enclosure (less risk for the buyer) and buy the upgrade kit? Either way, it’s not like you wasted your money on the MK4S.

                I’ve sold used printers in the past without much trouble. But yeah, it’s not like the MK4S is bad or anything like that. This is more a case of first world problems.
