a truly great build plate

NeverDie Hero Member last edited by NeverDie

I recently switched to using Prusa's textured PEI-Ultem build plate, and it works wonderfully with PETG: no brims are needed and prints stick very well while printing, and yet prints release with little to no effort after it has cooled to room temperature.

In my view it is a significant improvement over the smooth PEI build plate that Prusa released a couple years ago.

Anyone here discovered any other build plates that they really like?

Reporting back: I have my BambuLab X1C printer setup and have printed with it for about a week. It's fantastic: it's fast, and the prints come out perfectly every time. Truly an appliance: it works with only minor setup straight out of the box. I'd say it's a quantum leap better than my Prusa MK3S, which I guess I should try to sell while it still has value.

@NeverDie Yeah, but when I priced out domestic places, they all wanted enough that the client just decided to go a different way. This was only going to be for a prototype, but even so, I got prices ranging from I think $10-50 per pin holder, and it was less than 2 grams of plastic each. I just checked again, and JLCPCB would do them for $1 each, and then $20 for quick shipping, and as low as $4 for the slow boat that takes a month. None of those options were very appealing at the time. Digikey wants $13.66 each for this when I pick qty 10, so still not worth it for this project. Shipping with them is free, but I have no idea how quick they would be. I also checked PCBWay, just for fun, and they quoted 1.24 at qty 10, for $12.45 total. Interestingly, the quote for 1 was $12.45 also. They wouldn't show an estimate for shipping without clicking the 'Submit' button and having a human engineer review the file for printability. Since I'm not actually going to do this now, I don't want to waste their time, so I don't have a total price from them for comparison. As far as OP, this is a very old thread from 3.5 years ago, so I doubt that they still need help.
