I’m buying it in May when I’ll have the free $$$. Yup, I love tinkering, and without buying it, have already made my plans for upgrading it a ton! Turns out there are a bunch of great mods on thingiverse for the 1405 model, and I have access to a Ultimaker 2 and Makerbot Rep. 2 4th gen at my school, (building a 3d printer for fun/learning experience/dont like lines at school) so I’ll have the space to make all the parts :). I should be able to make it into a 8x8x8?(unsure about height) ABS/PLA printer with double a regular printerbot’s accuracy for under $500! I’m pumped!

Awesome. Happy printing!

Bought it, build it and can’t get it to work. It doesn’t calibrate with Cura or other software. So far it’s only collecting dust. Anyone in the Netherlands that can physically help me to get it working?

I really suggest you use Repetier as the first software to calibrate it. It offers more control.

But the Printrbot use Cura indeed. You did follow this: http://help.printrbot.com/Guide/4.+Using+Cura+to+Set+Up+Your+Auto-Leveling+Probe+and+Create+Your+First+Print/190

When you manually move your print head close to the bed, does the level sensor LED goes on ?
