    Wasn’t aware of the test (SuperSlicer user here), and found this.

    The tower has multiple notches, each one corresponding to a different retraction length. By looking at the tower after printing, you can see how each retraction length affects the print quality.

    So check your surface finish and select the retraction value with the best looks.














  • Ender 3v2 as starter here, doubled the price with a lot of upgrades/modifications. Got it running rock solid with Klipper and a microswiss direct drive.

    Grabbed the piggy bank and am now really satisfied with my voron 2.4.

    But very pleased with the fact I started with the Ender and got to learn then basics.

    As far as I can suggest anything; start with something with a large installed base, so it will be easy to find answers or (hardware) solutions to your problems. I can tell you, the installed base for Ender is large, but the quality of the hardware, is what you pay. And they are cheap…
